How to make a jQuery popup to ask for logging in or creating profile

I finally got a jQuery popup to work, and now trying to give the user the option to log in or create profile

So far I hav开发者_StackOverflow社区e something very simple like this:

var $dialog = $('<div>Please log-in or create a profile</div>')
    .dialog({
        autoOpen: false,
        title: 'Login Dialog'
    }); 

But what are some good and simple ways I can ask the person to log in? Should I just make a login form right in the div there? If so, in case the person needs to create a profile instead, how do I easily enable them to do that?

Also, should the login and create-profile code live elsewhere? If so, how do I reference it from this setup?

Thanks!!

Put the login form on your page as inline code. It's much easier to edit that way and switch it to be hidden when you are finished.

e.g.

<div id="mypopup" style="display: none;">
  <div id="loginform">
    Login form with layout with controls and buttons
    <span id="newprofile">Click here to create a new profile</span>
  </div>
  <div id="newprofileform" style="display: none;">
    New profile form with layout with controls and buttons
  </div>
</div>

And refer to it from your code using its ID.

var $dialog = $('#mypopup')
  .dialog({
    autoOpen: false,
    title: 'Login Dialog'
  }); 

$("#newprofile").click(function () {
  $("#loginform").hide();
  $("#newprofileform").show();
});
