This is what I came up with. It does not really look as if the "button" object is needed, but I don't know how else to use dnnConfirm. Only if one hits "OK" the callback function will be executed (the data object can be anything one wants to pass to callback, where it can be used like function (event) {var passedData = event.data); }).

    self.confirmDialog = function (message, callback, data) {

I realize this is a pretty old topic, but for future reference's sake I'll answer here anyway.

The dnnConfim-plugin was never meant to be used that way; it's sole purpose is to provide a way to have a user confirm or cancel a certain action that is bound to the click event of an anchor or (image)button element. This is why you can only bind it to a DOM element that is meant to be clickable in some way and why you can't define the callback method for the 'Ok' button.

DNN however exposes a CSS class, 'dnnPopup', for this. You can use it together with jQuery's dialog method to display DNN-styled dialog-popups. Use the 'dialogClass' option to add 'dnnPopup' to it's class list.

By the way: this is also how DNN itself does it, under the hood :-)
