title: JQuery UI Dialog not displaying in IE
body: <p>Hi I have a problem with the dialog not showing in IE</p>
  
  <p>Heres the modified code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>function setSpinnerDialog(text) {
  var spinner = $('&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;').html(text +
  "&lt;img  id='loadingImage' src='../../Content/images/spinner.gif'/&gt;").dialog({
      autoOpen: false,
      modal: true,
      height: 35,
      width: 160
  });
  return spinner;}
  
  
  $('#imgVisitorEscortIds,#imgVisitingCardIds').click(function (e) {
  
   $spinnerDialog = setSpinnerDialog("loading... ");
   $spinnerDialog.dialog('open');
  
   //create list 
    $('#' + listId).selectBox();
  
  //show dialog of list
  
  
   //close spinner
    $spinnerDialog.dialog('close');
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Whilst the select is being generated (potentially 100's of names) a loading dialog is meant to display.  This happens in all browsers but not IE.  </p>
  
  <p>Any suggestions</p>
  
  <p>Cheers</p>
