I have an img tag that I want to change the src when hover and it all works but i would like to add some transition so it doesn't look so rough but since it's an img src i cant target it with css.

html
<img id="bg" src="img/img1.jpg">
<div onmouseover="imgChange('img/img2.jpg'); "onmouseout="imgChange('img/img1.jpg');">
js
function imgChange(im){
document.getElementById('bg').src=(im);
}
You want a crossfade. Basically you need to position both images on top of each other, and set one's opacity
to 0 so that it will be hidden:
<div id="container">
<img class="hidden image1" src="http://www.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/4629609/2/istockphoto_4629609-green-field.jpg">
<img class="image2" src="http://www.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/9958532/2/istockphoto_9958532-sun-and-clouds.jpg" />
</div>
CSS:
.hidden{
opacity:0;
}
img{
position:absolute;
opacity:1;
transition:opacity 0.5s linear;
}
With a transition
set for opacity
on the images, all we need to do is trigger it with this script:
$(function(){
debugger;
$(document).on('mouseenter', '#hoverMe', function(){
$('img').toggleClass('hidden');
});
});

Here is a pure css solution using css transition
. You can use a div
as the container and set the background-image
on hover.
.image-container {
background: url(http://placeholder.pics/svg/300x300/DEDEDE/555555/Old%20Image) center center no-repeat;
background-size: contain;
width: 150px;
height: 150px;
-webkit-transition: all .3s ease-in-out;
-moz-transition: all .3s ease-in-out;
transition: all .3s ease-in-out;
}
.image-container:hover {
background-image: url("http://placeholder.pics/svg/300x300/DEDEDE/555555/New%20Image");
}
<div class="image-container"></div>
Just in case someone is curious how to actually create a transition-like effect when you are actually changing the source attribute of an image, this was the solution I came up with.
Javascript:
var bool = false;
setInterval(() => {
bool = !bool;
let imgSrc = bool ? 'hero-bg2.jpg' : 'hero-bg.jpg'; // Toggle image
$('.parallax-slider').addClass('transitioning-src'); // Add class to begin transition
setTimeout(() => {
$('.parallax-slider').attr('src', `https://website.com/images/${imgSrc}`).removeClass('transitioning-src');
}, 400); // Ensure timeout matches transition time, remove transition class
}, 6000);
CSS:
.parallax-slider {
transition: opacity 0.4s ease-in;
-webkit-transition: opacity 0.4s ease-in;
-moz-transition: opacity 0.4s ease-in;
-ms-transition: opacity 0.4s ease-in;
-o-transition: opacity 0.4s ease-in;
opacity: 1;
}
.transitioning-src {
transition: opacity 0.4s ease-out;
-webkit-transition: opacity 0.4s ease-out;
-moz-transition: opacity 0.4s ease-out;
-ms-transition: opacity 0.4s ease-out;
-o-transition: opacity 0.4s ease-out;
opacity: 0;
}
This will give the illusion of 'fading to black and back' between images - even if you're using something like parallax.js where you have a data-attribute driven component that renders out into a dynamic image. Hope it helps someone.
i usually use jquery for this.
$(document).on("mouseover", '.image_class', function () {
$(this).attr('src', 'img/img2.jpg');
});
$(document).on("mouseout", '.image_class', function () {
$(this).attr('src', 'img/img1.jpg');
});
