Make Another a inside your target with width and height match with position:fixed; the parent and having less z-index than the model content div which should be position:relative
Change

<a href="#" title="Close Menu" class="bodyclose"></a>
in css:-
.bodyclose {
top: 0;

opacity: 0;
display:none;
z-index:1;
position:fixed;
