Dialog problem

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. I am trying to display dialog
2. It works in initial function of a java script file 
3. but it doesn't work in in any other function,

For example:

$(document).ready(function{
$("#dialog").dialog();
});

and in any function like:

function abc(){
$("#dialog").dialog();
}

It works in abc function only when this code is "$("#dialog").dialog()" written 
inside the document ready function also...otherwise it doesn't. 

Can anyone provide me the solution for this...I am new to Jquery.

I am using 

Jquery plugin: jquery.1.3.2.js
On Linux Operating System
