JQUERY Dialog is not a separated window. You can access all parent's elements from dialog window using their names or IDs or some other attribute. Consider you want to send your JSON data to a javascript function. Some code lines like what I wrote here can help you:

<script>
    $(function() {
    $( "#dialog-confirm" ).dialog({
        resizable: false,
        height:140,
        modal: true,
        buttons: {
        "Yes": function() {
            $( this ).dialog( "close" );
            some_javascript_function(JSON_DATA);
        },
        "No": function() {
            $( this ).dialog( "close" );
        }
    }
    });
</script>

No matter you write above script in the HTML file or a separated js file, you just need to be sure that your javascript function is known there.

Why does it need to be json? You can just set the elements via javascript directly.

document.getElementById("SomeTextBox").value = "xyz";

You may have to reference the parent using parent.document see this for more details:
