#9616 closed bug (wontfix)

Clicking on a dialog does not bring it to the front

Description

If you have multiple dialogs in different containing divs, then clicking on one dialog does not bring it in front of others.

The bug can be reproduced at http://jsfiddle.net/TRe2y/

It's necessary to place dialogs in different containers if you are working with scoped themes and you want the dialogs to have different themes.

This bug didn't occur in jQuery UI 1.9.2

By appending the dialog to a different container, you're opting into a new set of rules. Dialogs only stack within their containers. You also don't need to use containers for theming, that's why the dialogClass option exists.

Thanks for looking into this quickly.

When working with scoped themes, you do need to put the dialog within a container.

Here's a fiddle that shows the difference between a dialog within a scoped container and one that was created with the dialogClass option: http://jsfiddle.net/TRe2y/1/

Is there a workaround for this issue?

Here's a reduced fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/TRe2y/3/

This is really an issue with scopes not working directly on elements: https://github.com/jquery/download.jqueryui.com/issues/145

Looks like I'll have to write custom code to handle the z-indexing. This worked okay in previous versions.

Luckily you can just override _moveToTop() and implement whatever you want :-)

Thanks Scott. I'll look into that. :)
