I need the help of the experts on here.

My code is fine and dandy and works great a single time once the “Open” button is clicked. Once I select date it closes just fine. However, when I go to re-open it again for a second time the width and height are out of scope and the ui dialog looks different. I am wondering what I am doing wrong here?

       height:     215,  
       width:      234,

     onSelect:function(){ 
                    z = $(this).val(); 
                    alert(z); 
                    $("#dd").dialog("close");

Much thanks and appreciation for all your help and support in advance.

    I wasn’t able to duplicate your described behavior, but did rewrite some of the functionality to more accurate to what jQuery recommends, which might fix your issue.

    In the code block below, I instantiate the jQuery modal dialog once on document ready, then fire the dialog(‘open’) command each time to open / close it. (I swapped out your libraries with google api for testing).

    Please let me know if this works for you 🙂
