How can I detect that the (X) close button of a jQuery UI Dialog was clicked, separately from the dialogclose/dialogbeforeclose events?

Question

I\'d like to be able to detect the (x) close button of a jQuery UI Dialogue being clicked, but I don\'t want to use the dialogclose / dialogbeforeclose

Answer 1

Really good question

It's working if You use only the click

 $(".ui-dialog-titlebar-close").click( function() { 
        debugger;
        });

But i'm sure there's a reason for the live ?

I'll continue looking

And why you don't want to use this ?

$('.selector').bind('dialogclose', function(event, ui) {
   debugger;
});
