Hi Keerthi,

Based on your requirement, I have created a 2 VF along with one controller as follows,
  • CustomPOPUP -  Page that has the Checkbox, if Selected it shows a popup with the another page named 'AnotherPageOfCustomPOPUP'
  • CustomPOPupCon - is the Controller to show popup functionality
You can make the changes as you needed.

VF page CustomPOPUP:
<apex:page controller="CustomPOPupCon" showHeader="false">
   <!-- Popup styling ends here -->   
      <style type="text/css">    
        .custPopup{
            background-color: white;
            border: 1px solid#E5c130;
            border-radius: 4px;
             z-index: 9999;
            left: 50%;
            padding:10px;
            position: absolute;
            /* These are the 3 css properties you will need to change so the popup
            displays in the center of the screen. First set the width. Then set
            margin-left to negative half of what the width is. You can add
            the height property for a fixed size pop up if you want.*/
            width: 250px;
            margin-left: -250px;
            top:100px;
        }
        .popupBackground{
            background-color:black;
            opacity: 0.20;
            filter: alpha(opacity = 20);
            position: absolute;
            width: 100%;
            height: 100%;
            top: 0;
            left: 0;
            z-index: 9998;
        } 
    </style>
  <!-- Popup styling ends here -->

  <apex:form >
  <!-- Popup to show while an opportunity is created STARTING-->
   <apex:outputPanel id="tstpopup1" rendered="{!pop}">
      <apex:outputPanel styleClass="popupBackground" layout="block" rendered="{!pop}"/>
        <apex:outputPanel styleClass="custPopup" layout="block" rendered="{!pop}">            
         <center> <apex:include pageName="anotherPageOfCustomPOPUP"/>
            <br/>
           <apex:commandButton value="Close" action="{!close}"/>
         </center>
        </apex:outputPanel>
      </apex:outputPanel>
   <!-- Popup to show while an opportunity is created ENDING-->
    <br/><br/><br/><br/><center>
       Click the checkbox to show another page in popup &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
       <apex:inputCheckbox value="{!chk}">
         <apex:actionSupport event="onclick"
                                action="{!showpop}"
                                rerender="frm1"/>
       </apex:inputCheckbox></center>
  </apex:form>
</apex:page>

Controller:
public class CustomPOPupCon
{
    public boolean pop{get;set;}
    public boolean chk{get;set;}

    public CustomPOPupCon()
    {      
        pop = false;
    }
    public void showpop()
    {
       if(chk == true)
       {
          pop = true;
       }
    }   
    public void close(){       
       pop = false;
    }
}

Another VF page AnotherPageOfCustomPOPUP
<apex:page >
  This is another vf page shown in POPUP...!
</apex:page>

Hi Keerthi,

My code works fine in my account that's why Im sure abt this works for you.
I think you have a browser problem. So make sure javeascript has been enabled for your browser or not.
