Text on image mouseover?
This is using the :hover pseudoelement in CSS3.
HTML:
<div id="wrapper">
<img src="http://placehold.it/300x200" class="hover" />
<p class="text">text</p>
</div>
CSS:
#wrapper .text {
position:relative;
bottom:30px;
left:0px;
visibility:hidden;
}
#wrapper:hover .text {
visibility:visible;
}
Demo HERE.
This instead is a way of achieving the same result by using jquery:
HTML:
<div id="wrapper">
<img src="http://placehold.it/300x200" class="hover" />
<p class="text">text</p>
</div>
CSS:
#wrapper p {
position:relative;
bottom:30px;
left:0px;
visibility:hidden;
}
jquery code:
$('.hover').mouseover(function() {
$('.text').css("visibility","visible");
});
$('.hover').mouseout(function() {
$('.text').css("visibility","hidden");
});
You can put the jquery code where you want, in the body of the HTML page, then you need to include the jquery library in the head like this:
<head>
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
</head>
You can see the demo HERE.
When you want to use it on your website, just change the <img src /> value and you can add multiple images and captions, just copy the format i used: insert image with class="hover" and p with class="text"
Here is one way to do this using css
HTML
<div class="imageWrapper">
<img src="http://lorempixel.com/300/300/" alt="" />
<a href="http://google.com" class="cornerLink">Link</a>
</div>
CSS
.imageWrapper {
position: relative;
width: 300px;
height: 300px;
}
.imageWrapper img {
display: block;
}
.imageWrapper .cornerLink {
opacity: 0;
position: absolute;
bottom: 0px;
left: 0px;
right: 0px;
padding: 2px 0px;
color: #ffffff;
background: #000000;
text-decoration: none;
text-align: center;
-webkit-transition: opacity 500ms;
-moz-transition: opacity 500ms;
-o-transition: opacity 500ms;
transition: opacity 500ms;
}
.imageWrapper:hover .cornerLink {
opacity: 0.8;
}
