I am using the Jquery dialog box for the user option yes/no and want to perform something on basis of the choice. But the dialog box is not returning any bool value. So I used Alert to check the value and found the alert displaying [object Object] instead of true/ false

C#

$(function () {
           var $myDialog = $('#confirmDialog')
       .html('You are going to Lock the Record.<br/>Click OK to confirm.  Click Cancel to stop this action.')
       .dialog({
           autoOpen: false,
           modal: true,
           title: 'Confirm..?',
           buttons: { "OK": function () {
               $(this).dialog("close");

               return true;

           }, "Cancel": function () {
               $(this).dialog("close");

               return false;

           }
           }
       });
           $('#<%=LinkButton1.ClientID%>').click(function (e) {
               e.preventDefault();
               if (Page_ClientValidate()) {
                   var r = $myDialog.dialog('open');
                   alert(r); // To test the value returned
                   if (r == true) {
                       // To do something on the basis of the result
                   }
               }
               return false;

           });
       });

No, you can't do like this. You have to call another function inside the "buttons".

See my past answer - jqueryUI dialog returning bool[^].

JavaScript

$('#id').dialog({
    autoOpen: false,
    width: 600,
    modal: true,
    buttons: {
        "Yes": function () {
            $(this).dialog('close');
            callback(true);
        },
        "No": function () {
            $(this).dialog('close');
            callback(false);
        }
    }
});

function callback(value) {
    if (value) {
        alert("Confirmed");
    } else {
        alert("Rejected");
    }
}

So, here inside callback function, you can do what you want.
