As you can see in my example first time you click on delete button dialog is not showing. Second time will show. What could be the reason why dialog is not showing on the first click? I'm not sure if that has to do anything with dynamically built table? If anyone knows solution for this please let me know.
You should be creating your confirmation before the button click, but if you must do it this way add in a
$(this).confirmation('show')
after you create the confirmation.. This piece of code makes it work:
