i am opening a jquery dialog in a click function. But if i close the dialog and open it for the second time, the contents inside the dialog remains the same.. I need the text boxes inside the dialog to be empty while i open it for the consecutive times..
This is my aspx code:
<div>
<span id="id_PrivateSpace" style="color: #88b807; margin-left: 839px;
margin-top: -12px; cursor: pointer; display: block">Create</span>
</div>
<div id="thedialog" style="display: none; overflow: hidden">
<table id="table" style="border-spacing: 7px 7px; margin-left: 5px">
<tr>
<td>
<span class="SubHeading" style="font-size: 10pt;">Private Space Name </span>
</td>
<td>
<asp:TextBox ID="txt_spacename" runat="server" />
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<span class="SubHeading" style="font-size: 10pt;">Private Space Description </span>
</td>
<td>
<asp:TextBox ID="txt_spacedesc" TextMode="MultiLine" runat="server" />
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<span class="SubHeading" style="font-size: 10pt;">Users </span>
</td>
<td>
<input type="text" id="txt_users" />
</td>
<td>
<asp:Button ID="btn_addusers" Text="Add" Style="margin-left: 10px;" runat="server" />
</td>
<td rowspan="5">
<table id="users_grid" align="left">
</table>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<span class="SubHeading" style="font-size: 10pt;">DL </span>
</td>
<td>
<asp:TextBox ID="txt_Add_dl" TextMode="MultiLine" runat="server" />
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<input type="button" id="Btn_Submit" value="Create" style="margin-left: 335px; margin-top: 35px;"
runat="server" />
</div>
This is my js code:
$("#thedialog").dialog({
autoOpen: false,
title: 'Create Private space',
modal: true,
position: 'center',
width: 900
});
$('#id_PrivateSpace').click(function() {
$('#thedialog').dialog('open');
return false;
});
what should i add to refresh only the contents of the dialog?

Reset to default 3I guess you can try:
$('#id_PrivateSpace').click(function() {
$("#thedialog").find('input:text, textarea').val('').attr('placeholder','Enter some value');
$("#thedialog").find('select').val('');//you need to have and option like <option value="">Please Select</option> in your select options list
$('#thedialog').dialog('open');
return false;
});
And for your aspx Dropdownlist make sure you set AppendDataBoundItems to true; and set the OnDataBinding event
<asp:DropDownList id="myDdl" runat="server" OnDataBinding="Ddl_Databinding" >
</asp:DropDownList>
And in your code behind, Add:
protected void Ddl_Databinding(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
DropDownList ddl = (DropDownList)sender;
ddl.Items.Add(new ListItem("Please Select", ""));
}
Add the following function on close to destroy the particular instance of your jquery dialog:
close: function()
{
$(this).dialog('close');
$(this).dialog('destroy');
$(this).html("");
},
This is the code I had to use having similar problem when I was creating dialogs on the fly.
Try,
<form id="myform>
<div id =thedialog> ....... </div>
</form>
When you close the dialog box, call the below function
document.getElementById("form1").reset();
$('#id_PrivateSpace').click(function() {
$("#thedialog input[type='text']").val('');
$("#thedialog textarea").html('');
$('#thedialog').dialog('open');
return false;
});
