        <script type="text/javascript" src="script/jquery-1.4.2.min.js"></script>
        <link type="text/css" href="css/jquery-ui-1.8.1.custom.css" rel="stylesheet" />
        <script type="text/javascript" src="script/jquery-ui-1.8.1.custom.min.js"></script>
        <script type="text/javaScript">
            $(function(){
                $('#dialog').dialog({
                    autoOpen: true,
                    width: 600,
                    buttons: {
                        "Ok": function() {
                            $(this).dialog("close");
                        }
                    }
                });
            });
        </script>
    </head>
    <%
                if (session.getAttribute("user") == null) {
                    response.sendRedirect("index.jsp");
                }
    %>
    <body>
        <div id="wrap">
            <div id="header">
            </div>

            <div id="leftside">
                <h2 class="hide">Sample menu:</h2>
                <ul class="avmenu">
                    <li><a href="dashboard.jsp" class="current">Dash Board</a></li>

                </ul>
            </div>

jqueryui.com/demos/dialog/#options may come in handy.

$(function () { /* Your dialog code */ }) is equivalent to $(document).ready(function () { /* Your dialog code */ }

Yeah, I just realized that when I looked into a little more. Just another case of the blind leading the blind. :)
