you can disable redirection of the link and jst run the click js event by many ways

1. use void() instead of '/'

<a href='void();' onclick='showModal("login.php")' >
 Login
</a>

2.use return false

<a href='function(){return false;}' onclick='showModal("register.php")' >
 Login
</a>

3. remove href and jst put onclick event

<a   onclick='showModal("register.php")' >
 Login
</a>


probably more ways comeup if you try to research

Thanks !!
