Question

I am working in a single page with multiple anchors. Each anchor has separate content to popup when clicked. I have the functionality working but when I click a different anchor it repeats the same content from the first anchor. I need to have each anchor show the corresponding content in the popup. Below is my code. Thank you in advance.

<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
$('a.bio, a.bio2').click(function() {

//Getting the variable's value from a link 

var loginBox = $(this).attr('href');

//Fade in the Popup

$(loginBox).fadeIn(300);

//Set the center alignment padding + border see css style

var popMargTop = ($(loginBox).height() + 24) / 2; 
var popMargLeft = ($(loginBox).width() + 24) / 2; 
$(loginBox).css({ 
'margin-top' : -popMargTop,
'margin-left' : -popMargLeft
});

// Add the mask to body
$('body').append('<div id="mask"></div>');
$('#mask').fadeIn(300);
return false;
});

// When clicking on the button close or the mask layer the popup closed

$('a.close, #mask').live('click', function() { 
$('#mask , .login-popup').fadeOut(300 , function() {
$('#mask').remove();  
}); 
return false;
});
});
</script>

The HTML

<a class="bio" href="#login-box">READ BIO &gt;&gt;</a>
     <div class="login-popup" id="login-box">
          <div id="popupimage">
          <h2>This is image 1</h2>
          </div></div>

<a class="bio2" href="#login-box">READ BIO &gt;&gt;</a></div>
     <div class="login-popup" id="login-box">
          <div id="popupimage">
          <h2>This is image 2</h2>
          </div></div>

The CSS

.login-popup {
background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #585858;
display: none;
float: left;
font-size: 1.2em;
height: 350px;
left: 50%;
padding: 20px;
position: fixed;
top: 50%;
width: 500px;
z-index: 999999999;
color:#FFF;
}

An html document can have a single element with an id. You have two div with login-box id. You must specify unique ids to each of them:

<a class="bio" href="#login-box-1">READ BIO &gt;&gt;</a>
     <div class="login-popup" id="login-box-1">
          <div id="popupimage-2">
          <h2>This is image 1</h2>
          </div></div>

<a class="bio2" href="#login-box-2">READ BIO &gt;&gt;</a></div>
     <div class="login-popup" id="login-box-2">
          <div id="popupimage-2">
          <h2>This is image 2</h2>
          </div></div>
