完整例子：

<!-- 渐变弹出层 -->
<div id="race"><a href="#">点击</a></div>
<div id="racePop" class="raceShow">这里是弹出层效果</div>

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
// 渐变弹出层
$(document).ready(function(){
var speed = 600; //动画速度
$("#race a").click(function(event){ //绑定事件处理
event.stopPropagation();
var offset = $(event.target).offset(); //取消事件冒泡
$("#racePop").css({ top:offset.top $(event.target).height() "px", left:offset.left }); //设置弹出层位置
$("#racePop").show(speed); //动画显示
});
$(document).click(function(event) { $("#racePop").hide(speed) }); //单击空白区域隐藏
$("#racePop").click(function(event) { $("#racePop").hide(speed) }); //单击弹出层则自身隐藏

});
</script>
