I have this minor issue where I want to insert a picture on my website. I manage to insert the picture but the problem comes when I want to insert an opacity into the code. I want the picture to become some kind of transparent when you hoover over it.
<a href="http://www.byggprojektoren.se" style="opacity: 1;"> <img
src="Image.jpg"> </a>
As it is right now it is not transparent when hoovering over with a mouse.
You can give it a :hover selector with css like this:
img:hover {
opacity:0,4;
}
Edit:
<html>
<head>
<style>
img:hover {
opacity:0,4;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<a href="http://www.byggprojektoren.se">
<img src="http://byggprojektoren.se/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/HomepagePic.jpg">
</a>
</body>
</html>
Use css instead of inline styles. You can also use css for the hover style, like this:
img {
opacity: 1;
}
img:hover {
opacity: 0.5;
}
<img src="picture.jpg" />

I want to overlay one image with another using CSS. An example of this is the first image (the background if you like) will be a thumbnail link of a product, with the link opening a lightbox / popup showing a larger version of the image.
On top of this linked image I would like an image of a magnifying glass, to show people that the image can be clicked to enlarge it (apparently this isn't obvious without the magnifying glass).
I just got done doing this exact thing in a project. The HTML side looked a bit like this:
<a href="[fullsize]" class="gallerypic" title="">
<img src="[thumbnail pic]" height="90" width="140" alt="[Gallery Photo]" class="pic" />
<span class="zoom-icon">
<img src="/images/misc/zoom.gif" width="32" height="32" alt="Zoom">
</span>
</a>
Then using CSS:
a.gallerypic{
width:140px;
text-decoration:none;
position:relative;
display:block;
border:1px solid #666;
padding:3px;
margin-right:5px;
float:left;
}
a.gallerypic span.zoom-icon{
visibility:hidden;
position:absolute;
left:40%;
top:35%;
filter:alpha(opacity=50);
-moz-opacity:0.5;
-khtml-opacity: 0.5;
opacity: 0.5;
}
a.gallerypic:hover span.zoom-icon{
visibility:visible;
}
I left a lot of the sample in there on the CSS so you can see how I decided to do the style. Note I lowered the opacity so you could see through the magnifying glass.
EDIT: To clarify for your example - you could ignore the visibility:hidden; and kill the :hover execution if you wanted, this was just the way I did it.
One technique, suggested by this article, would be to do this:
<img style="background:url(thumbnail1.jpg)" src="magnifying_glass.png" />
A simple way of doing that with CSS
only without modifying the content
with additional tags is shown here
(with code and example):

This works, as long as the parent element is not using static positioning. Simply setting it to relative positioning does the trick. Also, IE <8 don't support the :before selector or content.

If you're only wanting the magnifing glass on hover then you can use
a:hover img { cursor: url(glass.cur); }
http://www.javascriptkit.com/dhtmltutors/csscursors.shtml
If you want it there permanently you should probably either have it included in the original thumnail, or add it using JavaScript rather than adding it to the HTML (this is purely style and shouldn't be in the content).
Let me know if you want help on the JavaScript side.
In CSS3, you can do the following:
.double-image {
background-image: url(images/img1.png), url(images/img2.png);
}
Took from Can I have multiple background images using CSS?
All we want is parent above child. This is how you do it.
You put img into span, set z-index & position for both elements, and extra display for span. Add hover to span so you can test it and you got it!
HTML:
<span><img src="/images/"></span>
CSS
span img {
position:relative;
z-index:-1;
}
span {
position:relative;
z-index:initial;
display:inline-block;
}
span:hover {
background-color:#000;
}
Unless you use the <img> tag, which displays an image by itself, you will not be able to achieve this with pure CSS alone. You will also need TWO HTML elements as well - one for each picture. This is because the only way you can make an element display a picture via CSS is with the background-image property, and every element can have only one background image. Which two elements you choose and how you position them is up to you. There are many ways how you can position one HTML element above another.
Here's a good technique to display an overlay image that is centered with a semi-transparent background over an image link:
HTML
<div class="image-container">
<a class="link" href="#" >
<img class="image" src="/img/thumbnail.png"/>
<span class="overlay-image"><img src="/img/overlay.png"></span>
</a>
</div>
CSS
div.image-container{
position: relative;
}
a.link{
text-decoration: none;
position: relative;
display: block;
}
a.link span.overlay-image{
visibility: hidden;
position: absolute;
left: 0px;
top: 0px;
bottom: 0px;
right: 0px;
background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.2); /* black background with 20% alpha */
}
a.link span.overlay-image:before { /* create a full-height inline block pseudo=element */
content: ' ';
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: middle; /* vertical alignment of the inline element */
height: 100%;
}
a.link:hover span.overlay-image img{
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: middle;
}
a.link:hover span.overlay-image{
visibility: visible;
}

I've read multiple solutions here on Stack Overflow, but I still haven't found my solution. I've tried adding image goes here and manipulating #one:hover with CSS, but nothing happened. Using image goes here and manipulating #one:hover with CSS I get limited results, but they're all wrong. The original image never gets replaced, and a very thin line of the replacement image appears underneath my original image. Here 's my code:
HTML5:
<nav>
<p/><p/>
<a id="one" href="form.html"><img src="nav.email.gif" alt="E-Mail Form" width="256px" height="100px"/></a>
</nav>
CSS3:
#one:hover
{
background-image: url('nav.email.ani.gif');
width:256px;
height:100px;
}
Using "background" instead of "background-image" gives me nothing, and using a div tag gives me nothing. I tried absolute placement of the replacement image, but again all I got was a thin line instead of a full size image (even when using width and height). Thanks in advance.
One solution is suggest is to use background-image to img element like:
#imgOne:hover {
background-image: url('http://placehold.it/200x100');
width: 256px;
height: 100px;
}
#imgOne {
background-image: url('http://placehold.it/400x200');
}
<nav>
<p/>
<p/>
<a id="one" href="form.html">
<img id="imgOne" src="" alt="E-Mail Form" width="256px" height="100px" />
</a>
</nav>
Here is another alternative.
<a id="one" href="form.html>
<img title="email" src="nav.email.gif" onmouseover="this.src='nav.email.ani.gif'" onmouseout="this.src='nav.email.gif'" />
</a>
Option 1: Using Css 'Hover'
Rather than using an img tag, why don't you use a 'normal' div element? That way, you can do something like the snippet below, which sets the background for both the 'normal' and 'hovered' version within the css itself?
div {
height: 200px;
width: 200px;
background: url(http://placekitten.com/g/200/200);
}
div:hover {
background: url(http://placekitten.com/g/200/500);
}
<div></div>
Option 2: Replace Using Javascript/JQuery
You could use javascript at this point to replace the image's src, but I (personally) feel this would be a slower/less efficient approach than using css, Although, it would go along the lines of:
$("#myImageID").hover(function(){
$(this)...
});
The problem you have, is that the backgroung image is assigned to the a tag, but then have a image overlaying it.
I'd try this:
#one {
display: inline-block; /* keep it as inline nide but make it aware of width and height */
width: 256px;
height: 100px;
background-image: url('nav.email.gif');
background-repeat: no-repeat;
text-indent: -9999px; /* to hide the SEO text */
}
#one:hover {
background-image: url('nav.email.ani.gif')
}
Important: remove the img tag and put some text for SEO reasons in the a tag, if you like:
Some text for SEO reasons like Contact-Formular foo bar baz
*SEO text is optional.
Using Pure css content is fast and easy
#one:hover img{ content:url("http://placehold.it/400x200") }
<nav>
<p/><p/>
<a id="one" href="form.html">
<img src="http://placehold.it/200x100" alt="E-Mail Form" width="256px" height="100px"/>
</a>
</nav>
or You can Use #Alex Char answer or use this alternative solution.
#one img:nth-child(2)
{
display: none
}
#one:hover img:nth-child(1)
{
display: none
}
#one:hover img:nth-child(2)
{
display: block
}
<nav>
<p/><p/>
<a id="one" href="form.html">
<img src="http://placehold.it/200x100" alt="E-Mail Form" width="256px" height="100px" />
<img src="http://placehold.it/400x200" alt="E-Mail Form" width="256px" height="100px"/>
</a>
</nav>
I want to add a clickable image in my html page, with opacity and when I hover with my mouse over the image, the opacity has to change to 0. (with a: hover)
I tried different methods, but not one works..
Can anyone give me the code?
I found out how to fix the problem:
<html>
<div id="yourdiv">
<a href="#">
<img src="images/yourimage.png" width="20" height="20" alt="..." />
</a>
</div>
</html>
<style>
#yourdiv img{
opacity:0.5;
filter:alpha(opacity=50); /* For IE8 and earlier */
}
#yourdiv img:hover{
opacity:1.0;
filter:alpha(opacity=100); /* For IE8 and earlier */
}
</style>
Have you tried at least googling your issue?
Doesn't seem so...

I want to overlay one image with another using CSS. An example of this is the first image (the background if you like) will be a thumbnail link of a product, with the link opening a lightbox / popup showing a larger version of the image.
On top of this linked image I would like an image of a magnifying glass, to show people that the image can be clicked to enlarge it (apparently this isn't obvious without the magnifying glass).
I just got done doing this exact thing in a project. The HTML side looked a bit like this:

opacity: 0.5;
}
a.gallerypic:hover span.zoom-icon{

I left a lot of the sample in there on the CSS so you can see how I decided to do the style. Note I lowered the opacity so you could see through the magnifying glass.
EDIT: To clarify for your example - you could ignore the visibility:hidden; and kill the :hover execution if you wanted, this was just the way I did it.

In CSS3, you can do the following:
.double-image {
background-image: url(images/img1.png), url(images/img2.png);
}
Took from Can I have multiple background images using CSS?
All we want is parent above child. This is how you do it.
You put img into span, set z-index & position for both elements, and extra display for span. Add hover to span so you can test it and you got it!
HTML:
<span><img src="/images/"></span>
CSS
span img {
position:relative;
z-index:-1;
}
span {
position:relative;
z-index:initial;
display:inline-block;
}
span:hover {
background-color:#000;
}
Unless you use the <img> tag, which displays an image by itself, you will not be able to achieve this with pure CSS alone. You will also need TWO HTML elements as well - one for each picture. This is because the only way you can make an element display a picture via CSS is with the background-image property, and every element can have only one background image. Which two elements you choose and how you position them is up to you. There are many ways how you can position one HTML element above another.
Here's a good technique to display an overlay image that is centered with a semi-transparent background over an image link:
HTML
<div class="image-container">
<a class="link" href="#" >
<img class="image" src="/img/thumbnail.png"/>
<span class="overlay-image"><img src="/img/overlay.png"></span>
</a>
</div>
CSS
div.image-container{
position: relative;
}
a.link{
text-decoration: none;
position: relative;
display: block;
}
a.link span.overlay-image{
visibility: hidden;
position: absolute;
left: 0px;
top: 0px;
bottom: 0px;
right: 0px;
background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.2); /* black background with 20% alpha */
}
a.link span.overlay-image:before { /* create a full-height inline block pseudo=element */
content: ' ';
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: middle; /* vertical alignment of the inline element */
height: 100%;
}
a.link:hover span.overlay-image img{
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: middle;
}
a.link:hover span.overlay-image{
visibility: visible;
}
