open and close events pass empty object instead of reference to UI

Update:

Open receives the event object, I guess from the root object. So just missing the reference to the widget/UI.

This is correct, there's no data to provide for open or close.

The documentation shows the UI/Widget object being passed to it. Which would be consistent with all other events of this nature. Why on earth would you not pass a reference to the base dialog?

Practical usage:

during creation of the dialog, pass extra options that pertain to your use case.

open: function(event, ui) {

if(ui.options.myVar)

a();

else

b();

}

It makes sense, and it's in your documentation. Fix one or the other please.

That's not at all consistent with anything. We never pass references to widget instances. All events get a hash of relevant data, sometimes there is no relevant data.

http://jqueryui.com/demos/dialog/#event-open

$( ".selector" ).dialog({

open: function(event, ui) { ... }

});

user: "ui is an empty object"

dev?: "that's right!"

Thanks for your time, I'll try to remember the cake is a lie, I mean the docs.

If you can point to anything in the docs that says otherwise, we will update the docs. So far all you've done is cite something that you apparently made up (passing the widget instance).
