How to resize jquery ui dialog with browser

I open jquery ui dialog and load some content in it. But when I resize browser jq dialog doesn't change it's width/height. I have tried a few thing but no luck. Here how I open it:

$(document).ready(function () {
    var wWidth = $(window).width();
            var dWidth = wWidth * 0.9;
            var wHeight = $(window).height();
            var dHeight = wHeight * 0.9;

            $(".openDialog").live("click", function (e) {
                e.preventDefault();
                $("<div></div>")
                    .addClass("dialog")
                    .attr("id", $(this).attr("data-dialog-id"))
                    .appendTo("body")
                    .dialog({
                        title: $(this).attr("data-dialog-title"),
                        close: function () { $(this).remove() },
                        modal: true,
                        resizable: false,
                        show: 'fade',
                        width: dWidth,
                        height: dHeight,                    
                        create: function (event, ui) {
                            $(this).parents(".ui-dialog:first").find(".ui-dialog-titlebar").css("display", "none");

                            $(this).parents(".ui-dialog").css("padding", 0);
                            $(this).parents(".ui-dialog").css("border", 0);
                            $(this).parents(".ui-dialog:first").find(".ui-dialog-content").css("padding", 0);

                            $(this).parents(".ui-dialog:first").find(".ui-dialog-content").css("background", "#000000");
                            $(this).parents(".ui-dialog:first").find(".ui-dialog-content").css("overflow", "hidden");

                        }  

                    })
                    .load(this.href);
            });
$(window).resize(function () {
            var wWidth = $(window).width();
            var dWidth = wWidth * 0.9;
            var wHeight = $(window).height();
            var dHeight = wHeight * 0.9;
            $(".openDialog").dialog("option", "width", dWidth);
            $(".openDialog").dialog("option", "height", dHeight);
        });
});

It appears @jasonday has a nice script that amends the JQuery UI dialog functionality - seems to be working fairly well for me.

Here's his SO answer

Here's his script on github: jQuery-UI-Dialog-extended

I think that if you trigger the event resize off the dialog it should do it.

$( ".selector" ).dialog( "resize");

After the dialog has been opened the width and height are static unless resized. Bind an event to the window resize that will change it instead.

$(window).resize(function() {
    var wWidth = $(window).width();
    var dWidth = wWidth * 0.9;
    var wHeight = $(window).height();
    var dHeight = wHeight * 0.9;
    $("#data-dialog-id").dialog("option", "width", dWidth);
    $("#data-dialog-id").dialog("option", "height", dHeight);
});
