For learning jQuery UI dialog, I have the code defined below.

I need to do following three tasks

1) Use my image as “OK” button and “Cancel” button

2) Use my custom image as the close button on right top end of dialog

3) Background of the whole dialog should be “gray” (including title, and place for OK button.)

The important point is the style should be applied only to my dialog. All other widgets should have default behavior. For content area, I could achieve it using #myDiv.ui-widget-content.

Can you please suggest code for this?

Note: Please use the best practices, if possible. (E.g. 1. use a variable $myDialog 2. use autoOpen: false)

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

<head id="Head1" runat="server">

<script type="text/javascript">

    $(document).ready(function () {
        var $myDialog = $(".addNewDiv").dialog(
                                    {
                                        autoOpen: false,
                                        title: 'My Title',
                                        buttons: { "OK": function () {
                                            $(this).dialog("close");
                                            ShowAlert();
                                            return true;
                                        },
                                            "Cancel": function () {
                                                $(this).dialog("close");
                                                return false;
                                            }
                                        }

                                    }
                                           );





        $('#myOpener').click(function () {
            return $myDialog.dialog('open');


        });
    });

    function ShowAlert() {
        alert('OK Pressed');
    }

</script>


<body>
    <div>
    <input id="myOpener" type="button" value="button" />
</div>
<div class="addNewDiv"  id="myDiv" title="Add new Person" >
    <table>
        <tr>
            <td>
                Name
            </td>

        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>
                Age
            </td>

        </tr>
    </table>
</div>
</body>
</html>

Also, I made a css class to override the widget functionality only for my dialog

    /*
   *File Name: OverrideMyDialog.css
   * jQuery UI CSS is overriden here for one div
  */


/* Component containers
----------------------------------*/

#myDiv.ui-widget-content 
{ 
border: 5px solid Red;
background: Gray url(images/ui-bg_inset-hard_100_fcfdfd_1x100.png) 50% bottom repeat-x;
color: Green; 
}

    I have upvoted the above answer. Still dialogClass: ‘myDialogCSS’ was the key I was looking for.
