JavaScript - Images That Fade In Over Another Image When Hover

Hi. I'm Matthew, the creator of the Easing Slider Wordpress plugin. Currently I'm working on the next update of the slider which is to allow the user to assign a link to each image. This is working fine with the slide animations but is creating problems with the fade animation (note I'm using jQuery). Here are the two issues:

1) Using .animate({opacity:0}) & .animate({opacity:1}) the slider is only linking to the link assigned to the last image in the slider. The links are supposed to link: 1. google.com, 2. hotmail.com & 3. fadebook.com. However the slider is only linking to the last link (facebook.com).

2) Using .fadeIn & .fadeOut everything appears to work correctly and the links correspond to the images however when using the pagination before the image has finished fading can cause the images to disappear or appear not fully faded.

You can see the overall code he

http://pastebin.com/9JwaM9tg (check lines 72, 215 & 216)

Example (using .animate):

I've spent ages trying to figure this out but I really am struggling and cannot find a solution. Many people use the fade effect and I don't particularly want to get rid of it but I will have to if I can't find a solution.

I would appreciate if anyone could help me out. Thanks in advance. Matthew.

I've been looking for a way to fade a selection of images in on load while keeping their background present until they fade in. similar to whats been used on this site:

http://inventorystudio.co.uk/


thought this would be relatively simple but seems to be harder than i expected.

any suggestions?

I have this code...
I want to be able to make each image fade from one to the other.
Like this...
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...nslideshow.htm

Is there a way to do that with this code?

Code:

<script type="text/javascript">
// Simple Javascript Time based Image Swap

var Pics = new Array();

var counter = 0;


// Use this section to change the image paths
function LoadImages()
{
 Pics[1] = new Image();
 Pics[1].src = "images/pic1.jpg";
 Pics[2] = new Image();
 Pics[2].src = "images/pic2.jpg";
 Pics[3] = new Image();
 Pics[3].src = "images/pic3.jpg";
 Pics[4] = new Image();
 Pics[4].src = "images/pic4.jpg";
 Pics[5] = new Image();
 Pics[5].src = "images/pic5.jpg";
 Pics[6] = new Image();
 Pics[6].src = "images/pic6.jpg";
 Pics[7] = new Image();
 Pics[7].src = "images/pic7.jpg";
 Pics[8] = new Image();
 Pics[8].src = "images/pic8.jpg";
 Pics[9] = new Image();
 Pics[9].src = "images/pic9.jpg";
 Pics[10] = new Image();
 Pics[10].src = "images/pic10.jpg";
 Pics[11] = new Image();
 Pics[11].src = "images/pic11.jpg";
 Pics[12] = new Image();
 Pics[12].src = "images/pic12.jpg";
 Pics[13] = new Image();
 Pics[13].src = "images/pic13.jpg";
 Pics[14] = new Image();
 Pics[14].src = "images/pic14.jpg";
 Pics[15] = new Image();
 Pics[15].src = "images/pic15.jpg";
 Pics[16] = new Image();
 Pics[16].src = "images/pic16.jpg";
 Pics[17] = new Image();
 Pics[17].src = "images/pic17.jpg";

 document.pic1.src = Pics[1].src;
}
//Time in miliseconds
function timedImage()


{
counter ++
 if (counter > 17) {
   counter = 1;
 }
 document.pic1.src = Pics[counter].src;
t=setTimeout("timedImage()",5000);
}

Hi! I'm wondering if somebody here could help me please. I'm trying to develope the image slideshow using PHP and JavaScript. The idea is that the PHP file gets random images from the folder, i'm using session to prevent repeating the same image and then JavaScript generates the fade slideshow using that PHP file. I've come up with the solution to use two img tags in the HTML page, so JavaScript then swap them around and play with opacity, but unfortunately couldn't make it work. Everything I have tried in JavaScript didn't work properly. I'd be grateful for any help and advice guys. Thank you.

My PHP code:

PHP Code:
<?php 
class images {

    var $images = Array();
    var $imgDir = 'images/';
    
    function getImages() {
        $images = Array();
        if ($dir = opendir($this->imgDir)) {
            while(($file = readdir($dir)) !== false) {
                if(preg_match('#(\.jpg$)|(\.png$)|(\.jpeg$)|(\.gif$)#i', $file)) $images[] = $file;
            }
            closedir($dir);
        }
        return $images;
    }
    
    function getNextImage() {
        if (($images = $this->getImages()) !== false) {
            session_start();
            if (!isset($_SESSION['image'], $images[$_SESSION['image']])) {
                $index = mt_rand(0, count($images)-1);
            } else {
                $index = $_SESSION['image'] == count($images)-1 ? 0 : $_SESSION['image']+1;
            }
            $_SESSION['image'] = $index;
            return $images[$index];
        }
        return false;
    }
    
    function outputImage() {
        if (($file = $this->getNextImage()) !== false) {
            header('Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate'); // HTTP/1.1
            header('Expires: Wed, 9 Dec 1981 07:00:00 GMT'); // Date in the past
            header('Content-type: image/jpg');
            readfile($this->imgDir.$file);
            exit();
        }
    }
}
$img = new images();
$img->outputImage();
?>

My HTML page:

Code:

<html>
<head>
<title>Images</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/style.css" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="javascript/slideshow2.js" language="javascript"></script>
</head>

<body onload="startSlideShow();">
<h1>Images</h1>
<div id="imageWrap">
	<div id="images">
		<img id="sampleImgFade" src="images.php" alt="images" style="filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.alpha(opacity=0);-moz-opacity:0;-khtml-opacity:0;" width="800" height="600" onload="coverLoaded(this);" />
		<img id="sampleImg" src="images.php" width="800" height="600" alt="images" onload="mainLoaded();" />
	</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>

CSS code:

Code:

#imageWrap {
	clear: both;
}
#images {
	position: relative;
	clear: both;
}
#sampleImgFade {
	position: absolute;
	top: 0px;
	left: 0px;
}

JavaScript code which doesn't work properly(just to show in which direction I'm going):

Code:

var img;
var loaded = new Array();
loaded['start'] = true;
loaded['main'] = false;
loaded['cover'] = true;
var fade = 0;
var i = 0;
function getImage() {
	img = new image();
	img.src = "images.php";
}
function coverLoaded(obj) {
	loaded['cover'] = true;
	setOpacity(obj, 100);
	window.setTimeout("startFade", 5000);
}
function mainLoaded() {
	loaded['main'] = true;
	if (loaded['start'] && loaded['cover'] && loaded['main']) startFade();
}
function startFade() {
	loaded['start'] = false;
	loaded['main'] = false;
	loaded['cover'] = false;
	fade = window.setInterval("fadeIn()", 50);
}
function fadeIn() {
	var obj = document.getElementById("sampleImgFade");
	var opacity = getOpacity(obj);
	if (opacity > 0) {
		setOpacity(obj, opacity-5);
	} else {
		window.clearInterval(fade);
		document.getElementById("sampleImg").src = "images.php?u="+i++;
	}
}
function getOpacity(obj) {
	if (obj.filters) {
		return obj.filters.item("DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha").Opacity;
	} else if (obj.style.MozOpacity) { // mozilla
		return obj.style.MozOpacity*100;
	} else if (obj.style.KhtmlOpacity) { // konquerer
		return obj.style.KhtmlOpacity;
	} else { // not supported
		return 0;
	}
}
function setOpacity(obj, opacity) {
	if (obj.filters) {
		obj.filters.item("DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha").Opacity = opacity;
	} else if (obj.style.MozOpacity) { // mozilla

}

Hi everyone. I'm brand new to this forum and in need of some help. If you've got a free minute and are interested in helping the clueless I've got one for you. I'm trying to form a script and the appropriate calls to fade-in some text on the event of an image mouseover. Here is what I'm working with:

Code:

<html>

<head>

<script type="text/javascript">
function setOpacity(level) {
element.style.opacity = level;
element.style.filter = "alpha(opacity=" + (level * 100) + ");";
}
var duration = 1000;
var steps = 20;
var delay = 5000;
function fadeIn() {
for (i = 0; i <= 1; i += (1 / steps)) {
setOpacity(" + i + "), i * duration;
}
}
</script>

</head>

<body>

<p id="text" style="filter:alpha(opacity=0);opacity:0.5">
This is the text.
</p>

<img name="image" src="pic.jpg" onmouseover="javascript:fadeIn(document.getElementById('text'))" />

</body>

</html>

I know there are problems with this. It looks wonky to me and I don't even know what I'm doing. It's a mashup of some code I found somewhere and my own bad guesses at how to fill in the gaps. Any tips on how I can bring this together? Thanks so much for reading this far. I appreciate your time.

Hi,

I'm building a website which uses javascript to cycle through and fade images in the header portion of each web page. The javascipt os located in an external file and called via the master page. Here is the code in the content.js file which specifies where the images are located:

Code:

// create array of images
var CyclingImages = new Array("header/images/tankimage1.gif",
                              "header/images/tankimage2.gif", 
                              "header/images/tankimage3.gif",
                              "header/images/tankimage4.gif")

Here is the code in the master page which finds the javascript:

Code:

 <script language="javascript" src="<%= Page.ResolveUrl("~/content/content.js") %>"  type="text/javascript"></script>

Here is the function call in the masterpage to fade and cycle the images:

Code:

<body onload="FadeAndCycleImages()">

Here is the code in the masterpage which references the cycling images:

Code:

<span class="fadingimages">
                <img src="<%= Page.ResolveUrl("header/images/tankimage1.gif") %>" width="142" height="124" title="" alt="" name="cyclingimage"  />
            </span>

Each webpage loads the masterpage. If the webpage is located at the root of the project, the cycle and fade functionality works great. When I start to place some of the webpages in separate folders - which I need to do - the cycling and fading functionality breaks down, meaning the images cannot be found. The image place holder is there with the standard red "x" in the upper left. I have done a lot of research and tried many approaches to try to resolve this issue, but with no success. The root of the problem seems to lie in the fact that I cannot apply Page.ResolveUrl within the content.js file. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.


Thank you,

I've been trying to figure this out for days.. I just found a script that Old Pedant made which is close to what i need: http://www.clearviewarts.com/fadeBigDemo.html

But two concerns:

1. how can i have it so when i click the thumbnail, it fades in a different image (rather than just a larger version of the thumbnail)?
2. how can i have it fade in and out from simply hovering over the thumbnail (rather than clicking it)?

Your help would be greatly appreciated..

Hello, I'm learning javascript, and was wondering if it was Possible to have buttons/links that you click, the whole page fades out, and then fade's in, with different stuff. here are my ideas for just changing the stuff

Text:
1. having a javascript src file to start, and then when the button is clicked, that is formatted to white, the text layer is moved down, and a new javascript file is loaded?

2.variables?

any help would be appreciated!

Thanks, Cookies, whatever this forum gives out, you may receive!

Hi everyone, I'm new on this forum. I really need help in coding an part of my website. I want to make the logo background image fade to another background image on hover.

Here is the code I have until now:
Code:

#logo
{margin-top:0px;
 margin-bottom:0px;
 margin-left:auto;
 margin-right:auto;
 width:600px;
 height:515px;}

#logo h1
{display:block;
 background:url(img/logo.jpg) no-repeat;
 width:600px;
 height:515px;
 text-indent:-10000px;
 margin:0px;}
 
#logo h1 a
 {display:block;
  width:100%;
  height:100%;}
  
#logo h1 a:hover
  {background:url(img/logo.jpg) no-repeat 0px -515px;}

I want the background:url(img/logo.jpg) no-repeat; to fade to {background:url(img/logo.jpg) no-repeat 0px -515px;}.

I haven't found any tutorial which explains how to do that properly. I'd be really greatful if you could help me.

Thank you very much,
Alex

Hello and thanks for the help.

I'm no expert by any means, and I have no idea what the problem could be.

Internet Explorer crops my images on my image fade, but Chrome and Safari view it just fine.

the website is www.pisanchynproductions.com

If you open it in IE and Chrome you can see Chrome shows image fadeshow fine, and IE crops the images.
For the record, I don't want the images cropped.

The problem must be in here somewhere.

Code:

var fadeimages=new Array()
//SET IMAGE PATHS. Extend or contract array as needed
fadeimages[0]=["images/SSPP1.JPG", "", ""] //plain image syntax
fadeimages[1]=["images/SSPP2.JPG", "", ""] //plain image syntax

Anyone have a decent way of adding a fade affect to this script?

Hi,

I'm have set up a gallery site, pretty standard stuff with thumbnails to the right and big image to the left. I would like to add a fade in on the big image when the thumbnail is clicked and don't really know how to implement it.
The big images are contained in a div called <#left> while the thumbs are within a div called <div class="gallery">

I have searched Google and these forums for a solution but haven't had any luck...can anyone help me out with this?

Thanks

J

I've got a <ul> w/ 6 <li> items and CSS to make them 104x228 side blocks, which hold 2 images, one on top of the other. The 6 rows of images look like this:

X X X X X
X X X X X

This is what I want: The top row of images to be opacity:0 (or hidden), and then when you mouseover the bottom images, the top images come to 100 opacity. When you mouseout, the opacity is back to 0.

Here's the HTML and CSS:

Code:

<ul class="carz">
<li><img src="img/impreza2.jpg" class="imgtophidden"/><img src="img/impreza.jpg" /></li>
<li><img src="img/wrx.jpg" class="imgtophidden"/><img src="img/wrx.jpg" /></li>
<li><img src="img/legacy2.jpg" class="imgtophidden"/><img src="img/legacy.jpg" />/li>
<li><img src="img/outback2.jpg" class="imgtophidden"/><img src="img/outback.jpg" /></li>
<li><img src="img/forester2.jpg" class="imgtophidden"/><img src="img/forester.jpg" /></li>
<li><img src="img/tribeca2.jpg" class="imgtophidden"/><img src="img/tribeca.jpg" /></li>
</ul>

The classes are like so:

Code:

.imgtophidden {
opacity: 0;
}
.imgtop {
opacity: 100;
}

I am new to jQuery coding (but loving learning) and I want to figure out: how do I make this in jQuery? Here's what I have so far:

Code:

$(function() {
$("ul.carz li").hover(function() {
	$(this).find('img.imgtophidden').addClass('imgtop')
	} , function() {
	$(this).find('img.imgtop').addClass('imgtophidden')
});
});

I am trying to make different images hover over a table of sliced images when you mouse over a particular image. ex. mouse over image 1 = have image 1.1 hover over entire table of images in spot A; mouse over image 2 = have image 2.2 hover over entire table of images in spot B....ect. what i have so far only allows me to mouse over image 1 and have image 1.1 hover over entire table in spot A. Any time i try to move forward with more div's on other images it just jacks everything up. Here it is: Code:

<html>
<head>
<title>map</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />

<script type="text/javascript">

			{
			  loadAll(document.getElementById('map1'));
			}

			window.onload = init;
			
			function loadAll(arrayLoading)
			{
				var areas = arrayLoading.getElementsByTagName('area'); 
				for(var i=0;i<areas.length;i++) areas[i].onmouseover = mouseIsOver;			  
			}

			function mouseIsOver()
			{
				var area = this;

				var coords = this.coords;
				var x1 = parseInt(coords);
				coords = coords.substring(coords.indexOf(",") + 1);
				var y1 = parseInt(coords);
				coords = coords.substring(coords.indexOf(",") + 1);
				var x2 = parseInt(coords);
				coords = coords.substring(coords.indexOf(",") + 1);
				var y2 = parseInt(coords);

				var img = document.createElement("img");
				img.src = area.getAttribute("imgSrc");
				img.style.position = 'absolute';				
				img.style.left = x1 + 'px';
				img.style.top = y1 + 'px';
				img.style.height = y2 - y1 + 'px';
				img.style.width = x2 - x1 + 'px';

				area.parentNode.appendChild(img);

Hi all

I have a list of items that when you hover over them it displays an image (using CSS). This is fine when the list is small but when the list is large it takes a while to load all the images... this then delays any javascript on the page from running until all the images are loaded.

Is there a way to either:

* Use javascript to make it so the image only loads when the link is hovered over?

or

* Allow the rest of the javascript on the page to run before the images are finished loading?

I think i'd prefer the first solution if possible but i'm open to all ideas.

Thanks in advance!
