Basically, before calling 'open', you 'load' the content from the other page first.
jQuery('#dialog').load('path to my page').dialog('open');
try to use this one.
$(document).ready(function(){
$.ajax({
url: "yourPageWhereToLoadData.php",
success: function(data){
$("#dialog").html(data);
}
});
$("#dialog").dialog(
{
bgiframe: true,
autoOpen: false,
height: 100,
modal: true
}
);
});
