I haven't tested this, so I'm not sure if I've got the syntax exactly
right, but I believe you really want something like:

<a class="helper" href="#" title='Da Da'>help <span>Enter a Date</span></a>


> in Header Script:
$('#dialog').dialog({ autoOpen: false });
$('.helper span').hide();
$('.helper').click(function()
      {
        var aTag = $(this);
        $('#dialog').html($('span', aTag).html())
        .dialog('option', 'title', aTag.title())
        .dialog('open');
      });


In addition to make the link code much simpler, it allows you much
more elaborate text for the body of the help message, than would be
practical stuffed into a parameter to a function in a onclick
attribute.
