How to tell if jQuery BlockUI is blocking the page

javascript, jquery, jquery-blockui

Solution

I reviewed the source; it looks like the data is being written to `window`, not to `html` or `body`. See fiddle here:

http://jsfiddle.net/nAQ94/

$.blockUI({ 
    message: $('#divModal1'), 
    css: { cursor: 'default' }
});

console.log($(window).data());

The `console.log` call returns the following object:

`> Object {blockUI.history: Object, blockUI.onUnblock: null, blockUI.isBlocked: 1}`

Problem

Very similar to this question, except I'm not blocking a particular element, I'm blocking the whole page. So instead of: ``` $('div.test').block({ message: '<h1>Processing</h1>', css: { border: '3px solid #a00' } }); ``` I'm doing: ``` $.blockUI({ message: $('#divModal1'), css: { cursor: 'default' } }); ``` I've tried using `html` and `body` as the selector.. ``` var data = $('html').data(); if (data['blockUI.isBlocked'] == 1) { alert('blocked'); } else { alert('not blocked'); } ``` But `data['blockUI.isBlocked']` is always 'undefined'
