A little CSS/JS Help Please

I've been playing around with JQuery for a couple of weeks now. One of the features I love is the datepicker that can easily be added to any text box. One of the things that I've been trying to figure out is how to create a pop up dialog similar to the way the calendar pop up works.

I'd like to have a text box or table cell that has some text in it. In addition I've got an image or button somewhere else on the page. When I click on that element, a small form pop-up shows up under the text box. Now I know that I can do this, but simply putting the form inside a span/div tag, but I want the pop-up to actually pop-up and not affect the layout of the page when it shows or hides.

I know enough CSS and Javascript that I'm not a novice and if all else fails I'm going to attempt to dig through the jquery calendar js code. I'd rather not though. Any help would be appreciated.

The sunrise this morning was absolutely amazing. I was wishing I had my good camera with me, but had to settle for my phone. I know this doesn't really do it justice, but use your imagination a bit.
