load external URL into modal jquery ui dialog

Question

why doesn\'t this display ibm.com into a 400x500px modal? The section appears to be correct, but it doesn\'t cause the popup modal to appear.

Answer 1

I did it this way, where 'struts2ActionName' is the struts2 action in my case. You may use any url instead.

var urlAdditionCert =${pageContext.request.contextPath}/struts2ActionName";
$("#dialogId").load( urlAdditionCert).dialog({
    modal: true,
    height: $("#body").height(),
    width: $("#body").width()*.8
});
