Alert firing with undefined error

I am using jquery dialog to submit a form to a db and what I would like to do, is, on the beforeclose function, fire an alert to show what they submiited. Problem, is that I am getting 'box' undefined in firebug. I assumed that the variables would work in my code, but obviously not. I would be grateful if someone could check my code to see where I made the error. I shall only post the code thats relevant. Thanks

beforeclose: function (event, ui) {
                jAlert("You have successfully editted\n\rBox: "+box+"\n\r"+
                           "Status: "+status+"\n\r"+
                           "Size: "+size+"\n\r", 'Box addittion successfull');
                $("#f2").html("");
            }

The .click part

$('#EB_submit').click(function () {

            var submit = $('#EB_submit').val();
            var status = $('#EB_status').val();
            var id = $('#EB_id').val();
            var box = $('#EB_custref').val();
            var size = $('#EB_size').val();
            var service = $('#EB_service :selected').text();
            var address = $('#EB_address :selected').text();
            var data = 'submit=' + submit +
                       '&id=' + id +
                       '&status=' + status +
                       '&box=' + box +
                       '&size=' + size;

Based on what you posted, the var 'box' is local to the click function and unavailable to the dialog function.

var box;

$('#EB_submit').click(function () {

        var submit = $('#EB_submit').val();
        var status = $('#EB_status').val();
        var id = $('#EB_id').val();
        box = $('#EB_custref').val();

box is not defined in the beforeclose function. define box as a global variable.
