jQuery datepicker only works once and is not shown the second time

Question

ASP.NET MVC3 / jQuery 1.9.1 / jQuery UI 1.10.2

I\'ve got a page on which I open a modal dialog after clicking on an Ajax.ActionLink. Inside this dialog

Answer 1

I had a similar problem, but what happened to me was that the second time the dialog was loaded, the datapicker didn´t take the value.

The problem was that I was loading a second time the dialog and these cause problems. The solution was to remove the dialog after close it, something like:

  $("#popupDialog").dialog("close");    
  $("#popupDialog").remove();

I hope this helps anyone!
