I haven't learned how to make a close button yet. I tried the second method,
but I'm doing something wrong. I combined the two scripts as follows, but it
doesn't work.
$(\'#triggerReg\').click(function(){
$(\'#menuReg\').show();
},function(){
$("#menuReg").click( function(){
$(this).hide();
return true;
});
Thanks!
