jQuery Dialog Box

Question

Im trying to do a dialog box with jquery. In this dialog box Im going to have terms and conditions. The problem is that the dialog box is only displayed for the FIRST TIME.<

Looks like there is an issue with the code you posted. Your function to display the T&C is referencing the wrong div id. You should consider assigning the showTOC function to the onclick attribute once the document is loaded as well:

$(document).ready({
    $('a.TOClink').click(function(){
        showTOC();
    });
});

function showTOC() {
    $('#example').dialog({modal:true});
}

A more concise example which accomplishes the desired effect using the jQuery UI dialog is:

   

       Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.
