Many jquery ui dialogs

Question

Im trying to show more dialogs depending of the size of my newsArray. Why isnt it working?, i just get 1 popup. I checked the array and its 7 items in it

                for(var i=0; i<newsArray.length; i++{

                            $("#dialog").dialog({

                                      resizable: true,
                                      width:"auto",
                                      modal: true,
                                      title:"test"    
                             });    
                 }

Use class instead of using Id for dialog initialisation. Moreover you cannot have multiple elements of same Id (if any)

Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/lotusgodkk/GCu2D/58/

Code:

<div class="checked" >Click to open dialog</div>
<div class="checked" >Click to open dialog</div>
<div class="checked" >Click to open dialog</div>
<div class="checked" >Click to open dialog</div>
<div class="checked" >Click to open dialog</div>
<div class="checked" >Click to open dialog</div>
<div class="checked" >Click to open dialog</div>
<div class="checked" >Click to open dialog</div>

Javascript:

$(document).ready(function () {
for (var i = 0; i < 7; i++) {
    $(".checked").dialog({
        resizable: true,
        width: "auto",
        modal: true,
        title: "test"
    });
  }
});
