Subject: [Q] How to destroy a TkToplevel window

Hello,

I want to make a dialog using Tk (and I don't want to use TkDialog 
because it would be more difficult to explain).  I'm having trouble 
destroying a TkToplevel window.  My entire code is included below.

I have a main window with a button called 'Callback'.  If you click on 
it you get the dialog, which has a 'Cancel' button, which simply calls 
the 'destroy' method on the TkToplevel window.  When you click on it 
though, I get an error pop-up saying:

   Error: invalid command name
   ".w0005.w0006"

Does anyoone know what I'm doing wrong?  Or is there an easier way to do 
what I want?  Here is my code:

require 'tk'

def callback
        dialog = TkToplevel.new() { title "Add Contact" }

        button_quit = TkButton.new(dialog)   { text "Cancel"  }
        button_quit.bind("ButtonRelease-1")  { dialog.destroy }
        button_quit.pack("side" => "bottom")
end
   

root = TkRoot.new() {title "Hello World"}

#  Callback
button_add = TkButton.new(root)    { text "Callback"  }
button_add.bind("ButtonRelease-1") { callback }
button_add.pack("side" => "left")

#  Quit button.
button_quit = TkButton.new(root)    { text "Quit" }
button_quit.bind("ButtonRelease-1") { exit        }
button_quit.pack("side" => "left" )

Tk.mainloop
