JQuery Plugin won't work inside modal
Question
I am having trouble getting a jquery plugin called ui multiselect to show up properly inside a modal (using jqmodal). I actually have tried another modal called simplemodal and a different multiselect plugin as well with no luck. From what I can gather, it appears the CSS of the for uimultiselect is not being applied because the multiselect resides inside the modal div, which has display: none at page load. I have tried a number of different things suggested by others having this issue and none have worked. Perhaps I am doing it wrong.
In my code, I displayed the multiselect inside and outside of the modal. It works perfectly fine outside.

please try to place your jquery code before </body> and after the target selector... so jquery code after target selector can fire it up . because jquery need to be manipulation the target after.

All three of the following syntaxes are equivalent:
- $(document).ready(handler)
- $().ready(handler) (this is not recommended)
- $(handler)
You might be using syntax that is not recommended, try this:
$(document).ready(function() {
instead of this
$().ready(function() {

I resolved the issue. I had to apply the mutiselect js in the callback from jqmodal
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
$(document).ready(function() {
var myOpen=function(hash){
hash.w.css('opacity',1).show();
$(".multiselect").multiselect();
$.localise('ui-multiselect', {/*language: 'en',*/ path: 'js/locale/'});
};
$('#addShortCodes').jqm({
trigger: '#addShortCodesTrigger',
overlay: 30, /* 0-100 (int) : 0 is off/transparent, 100 is opaque */
overlayClass: 'whiteOverlay',
onShow:myOpen
})
.jqDrag('.jqDrag'); /* make dialog draggable, assign handle to title */
// Close Button Highlighting. IE doesn't support :hover. Surprise?
$('input.jqmdX')
.hover(function(){ $(this).addClass('jqmdXFocus'); },function(){ $(this).removeClass('jqmdXFocus'); })
.focus(function(){ this.hideFocus=true; $(this).addClass('jqmdXFocus'); })
.blur(function(){ $(this).removeClass('jqmdXFocus'); });
});
</script>
