I am working a project which uses a function to show a modal dialog. The dialog can be hide by calling the hideModal() function. This fuction is triggered by:

• Press ESC key
• Click on the modal background
• Click on the close button

My current code is:

 $("#modal").click(function() {
    hideModal();
});

$("#modal-object-container > a").click(function(e) {
    hideModal();
    e.preventDefault();
});

$(document).keydown(function (e) {

    if (e.keyCode == '27') {
        hideModal();
    }

});

I have the feeling there should be a faster way to bind all these events at once.
