Simple popup using jQuery
I'm trying to implement the code found in the best answer to the following question: How to generate a simple popup using jQuery
Why will the following page of code below not work?
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
a.selected {
background-color:#1F75CC;
color:white;
z-index:100;
}
.messagepop {
background-color:#FFFFFF;
border:1px solid #999999;
cursor:default;
display:none;
margin-top: 15px;
position:absolute;
text-align:left;
width:394px;
z-index:50;
padding: 25px 25px 20px;
}
label {
display: block;
margin-bottom: 3px;
padding-left: 15px;
text-indent: -15px;
}
.messagepop p, .messagepop.div {
border-bottom: 1px solid #EFEFEF;
margin: 8px 0;
padding-bottom: 8px;
}
</style>
<script src="//code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.js"></script>
<script src="//code.jquery.com/ui/1.10.4/jquery-ui.js"></script>
<script>
function deselect() {
$(".pop").slideFadeToggle(function() {
$("#contact").removeClass("selected");
});
}
$(function() {
$("#contact").live('click', function() {
if($(this).hasClass("selected")) {
deselect();
} else {
$(this).addClass("selected");
$(".pop").slideFadeToggle(function() {
$("#email").focus();
});
}
return false;
});
$(".close").live('click', function() {
deselect();
return false;
});
});
$.fn.slideFadeToggle = function(easing, callback) {
return this.animate({ opacity: 'toggle', height: 'toggle' }, "fast", easing, callback);
};
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div class="messagepop pop">
<form method="post" id="new_message" action="/messages">
<p><label for="email">Your email or name</label><input type="text" size="30" name="email" id="email" /></p>
<p><label for="body">Message</label><textarea rows="6" name="body" id="body" cols="35"></textarea></p>
<p><input type="submit" value="Send Message" name="commit" id="message_submit"/> or <a class="close" href="/">Cancel</a></p>
</form>
</div>
<a href="/contact" id="contact">Contact Us</a>
</body>
</html>
