When the link is clicked, populate a div (in the below example a div which already exists) using an ajax method such as .load and initialize a dialog on the newly populated div (untested!):

$("#theLink").click(function() {
    $("#myDiv").load("/some/link.html")
               .dialog({ autoOpen: false });
    $("#myDiv").dialog('open');
});
