Question

For pop up im using the following code

style :

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;
}

JavaScript :

$(function() {
        $("#contact").live('click', function(event) {
            $(this).addClass("selected").parent().append('<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>');
            $(".pop").slideFadeToggle()
            $("#email").focus();
            return false;
        });

        $(".close").live('click', function() {
            $(".pop").slideFadeToggle();
            $("#contact").removeClass("selected");
            return false;
        });
    });

    $.fn.slideFadeToggle = function(easing, callback) {
        return this.animate({ opacity: 'toggle', height: 'toggle' }, "fast", easing, callback);
    };

and finally

<a href="/contact" id="contact">Contact Us</a>

I need to include another pop up when the register link is clicked.

Whether i should use the same function with modifications or seperate functions. Please provide me the code with modifications. Im so weird. Help me.

I’d just do the same but chance the information so:

$(function() {
        $("#contact").live('click', function(event) {
            $(this).addClass("selected").parent().append(
            '<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>');
            $(".pop").slideFadeToggle()
            $("#email").focus();
            return false;
        });

        $(".close").live('click', function() {
            $(".pop").slideFadeToggle();
            $("#contact").removeClass("selected");
            $("#register").removeClass("selected");
            return false;
        });

        $("#register").live('click', function(event) {
            $(this).addClass("selected").parent().append(
            '<div class="messagepop pop"><form method="post" id="new_register" action="/register">The details and form here<input type="submit" value="Submit" name="commit" id="register_submit"/> or <a class="close" href="/">Cancel</a></p></form></div>');
            $(".pop").slideFadeToggle()
            $("#whateverisyourfirstbox").focus();
            return false;
        });
    });

    $.fn.slideFadeToggle = function(easing, callback) {
        return this.animate({ opacity: 'toggle', height: 'toggle' }, "fast", easing, callback);
    };
};

This is just running off your example. I hope the tutorials I pointed to you in my last answer for you are helping.
