Thanks Mike and Chad,
Curious, is there particular benefit to assign ID for such function concerning
accessibility and AT?

Maybe true in the old dasy.
The use of such Popup is more of a design consideration (e.g. spacing saving)
and it obscures no accessibility as far as content is concerned, therefore I
do not see the real needs to assign ID (though part of the reason is that I try
to avoid inserting more codes into template files and write extra lines of
javascript).
P/s. There is no display none in the example's markup. I never picked up that
bad habit.
