Fading Images with links

I have this code for the header
<div id="header">
<IMG SRC="http://danithemes.fanscity.eu/shugar/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/header-principal.png">
</div>
And this code for the main menu
<div id="menu">
Link One,
Link Two,
Link Three
</div>
I want the header image to fade into another image through the main menu links. Is this possible? Thanks.

First of all most W3C folks will get mad at you for this line <div id="header">
Anything syntactically named with an id the same as a generic HTML object tag needs to just be that tag. Anything good enough to give an id of id='header' should probably just be a <header> tag.
Secondly, I am unsure what the question is asking fully so let's go with something not yet said. #Parody showed a fiddled way of having the images change on click. The part of your question that said I want the header image to fade into another image through the main menu links. Is this possible? is difficult to understand so I am going to assume that you want some kind of event to trigger the changing of the images? There are many ways to do this but the best of which (especially for beginning programmers) is to use Bootstrap version 3.0+ since it comes with HTML driven stuff that usually requires JavaScript/JQuery to accomplish.
If you don't want to use Bootstrap then that's fine here is an example of how to use a hover event to trigger the change using JQuery...
HTML
<div id="header">
<img src="http://danithemes.fanscity.eu/shugar/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/header-principal.png" />
</div>
<div id="menu">
Link One
Link Two
Link Three
</div>
JAVASCRIPT/JQUERY
$(".navLink").each(function() {
$(this).hover(function() {
$("#header img").css({"background-image":"url($(this).attr('data-image'))"});
});
});

Moving a DOM Element in jQuery (Layer Slider)

jQuery noob here. Sorry if the question is really simple, I haven't been exposed to much jquery, though I am trying to learn.
I am attempting to move a DOM Element from one place to another, but I seem to be running into some errors.
When I attempt to test to see if the DOM exists I get indications that the element is not in the DOM:
if (jQuery('.ls-yourlogo').length) {
alert('Found!');
} else {
alert('NOT FOUND!');
}
I am trying to move .ls-yourlogo into .ls-inner.
I have tried several different things including:
jQuery('#layerslider_1').children('img').appendTo('#layerslider_1').children('.ls-inner');
also
jQuery('.ls-yourlogo').appendTo('.ls-inner');
I do know that the .ls-yourlogo and the .ls-inner DOM elements are both created with jQuery. I'm not sure if that is what is causing the problem.
I am currently working with the Layer slider plugin for WordPress: http://codecanyon.net/item/layerslider-responsive-wordpress-slider-plugin-/1362246
<div id="slider">
<script type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript"></script>
<div class="ls-wp-fullwidth-container" style="height: 317px;">
<div class="ls-wp-fullwidth-helper" style="height: 317px; width: 1349px; left: 0px;">
<div id="layerslider_1" class="ls-wp-container ls-container ls-noskin" style="width: 1050px; height: 317px; margin: 0px auto; visibility: visible;">
<div class="ls-webkit-hack"></div>
<div class="ls-inner">
<div class="ls-layer ls-active">
<img class="ls-s-1">
<p ></p>
<p ></p>
</div>
<div class="ls-layer" >
<img class="ls-s-1">
</div>
<div class="ls-circle-timer"></div>
<div class="ls-loading-container"></div>
<div class="ls-thumbnail-wrapper"></div>
<div class="ls-shadow"></div>
<img class="ls-yourlogo">
</div>
</div>
Thank you for your time.

Finally found a solution for moving an element the Layer Slider DOM.
jQuery('#layerslider_1').layerSlider({
hoverPrevNext : false,
cbInit : function(element){
jQuery('.ls-yourlogo').appendTo('.ls-inner');
jQuery('.ls-thumbnail-slide > a').addClass('ls-thumbnail-style');
}
});
The ID is of your layer slider that exists on the page. Mine happened to be 1 so its #layerslider_1. The next important part is the callback cbInit, inside this function you can make your appends and what ever other markup changes you want to make to the DOM.
Hope this helps someone.

try this:
suggestion instead of you typing jQuery everytime use $ instead it makes it easier for you.
if ($('.ls-yourlogo')) {
alert('Found!');
} else {
alert('NOT FOUND!');
}
Also i would suggestion using #ids than classes because ids are lot faster to get in Jquery than classes. And Make sure you call your the script that makes .is-yourlogo class first before checking if it exits.

see this jsfiddleThe </div> tags in your html are not properly closed off, that might be contributing to part of your problem. If I close a few off and run my code, it removes the element with the class='ls-your-logo' and appends it to the <div class='ls-inner'> which ends up being the same place as it was before. Perhaps if you look at my fiddle, you can better close the div tags to how you want it to properly look

Multiple sets of "nextPage"s

First and for most, I am new to web coding and more or less just teaching myself when I have free time... so I apologize if I make little sense.
I essentially have a simple javascript that allows me to have a prev and next button to move through multiple images. However I wanted to have multiple of these sets of "galleries" but in my case they interact with each other. I've attempted to contain each section (gallery, small text box, and the two buttons) but I've had no luck.
If you follow my link bellow you can see my issue... depending on the size of your screen you may only see one gallery, but you can see the each set of buttons affects each gallery.. This also for some reason adds "blank" images into the list of the image galleries.

Thanks in advanced!
This is my source code
<div class="section black" id="top_ten">
<div id="title"><h1>TOP TEN</h1></div>
<div id="image">
<div class="container">
<ol>
<li><img src="images/project5_1.jpg"></li>
<li><img src="images/project5_2.jpg"></li>
<li><img src="images/project5_3.jpg"></li>
</ol>
<div id="contentfooter">
<div id="footer">A publication and poster, which teaches guide lines to technical constraints. With any design job there comes rules and guidelines to follow in order to put out a proper project.</div>
<span class="button prevButton">–</span>
<span class="button nextButton">+</span>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
This is my js
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery-1.4.2.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(window).load(function(){
var pages = $('.container ol li'), current=0;
var currentPage,nextPage;
$('.button').click(function(){
currentPage= pages.eq(current);
if($(this).hasClass('prevButton'))
{
if (current <= 0)
current=pages.length-1;
else
current=current-1;
}
else
{
if (current >= pages.length-1)
current=0;
else
current=current+1;
}
nextPage = pages.eq(current);
currentPage.hide();
nextPage.show();
});
});

You have multiple elements with the same ID #container. Only one element can have an ID. Make it a class if you want to give it to multiple elements.
Now, when you select pages, you're selecting all of them.
var pages = $('#container ol li')
That would select every li inside and ol inside #container (it would be every container but it's an ID so that's causing you problems, too).
You know which button you clicked using $(this) so you can use .parent() to go up the DOM and find the container that contains that button and set of pages and only select that.

Javascript show/hide: How to set to Show

I have the following code:
<a class="button" href="javascript:ShowHide('elaborate_1')" style="font-size:24px; padding:0 10px; margin-left:10px;">COLLAPSE</a>
<div id="elaborate_1" class="expandable-box" style="display:none;">
<div class="description"><?php //USE THIS CLASS 'description' ON A 'div' TAG FOR A GRAY BOX TO DISPLAY CONTENT ?>
<p class="nomargin nopadding">HELLO</p>
</div><!-- .descpription -->
</div>
The web page currently hides this message "hello" until I click "COLLAPSE" however I want the content to be shown automatically until I click "collapse.
How can I do this?

Change the display:none to display:block on your elaborate_1 div.

Remove the display:none from the containing element:
<div id="elaborate_1" class="expandable-box">
If your ShowHide function is correct, it should work just like that. If not, you should post the code from the function.

Just remove style="display:none;" from your html element
and add following code to your js function (for reference)
document.getElementById("elaborate_1").style.display = "block";
Personally I would suggest taking a look at JQuery. It allows you to take advantage of controlling various effects, like show, hide, toggle, fade, and custom animation, etc. Here is the link: http://api.jquery.com/category/effects/ which might be useful to you.
A little Jquery sample code:
$('a.button').click(function(){
$('#elaborate_1').toggle("slow");
});

Jquery .next IE6/7 issue

I've been having nothing but problems with this script for a simple hide/show gallery of testimonials.
I think the java is somewhat self explanatory...
When the page loads, I tell it to show the first testimonial in the line up (as the css is display:none) and gives it a selected class name. Works fine in across the board.
On click I want it to remove the selected class place it to another, and then hide the first testimonial and pull up a corresponding one. Except all that happens here is the first testimonial disappears (hide) and the selected class is added.
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$(".testimonial:first").show();
$("li.testID:first").addClass("selectedName");
$("li.testID").click(function(){
$("li.testID").removeClass("selectedName");
$(this).addClass("selectedName");
$(".testimonial").hide();
$(this).next(".testimonial").fadeIn("slow");
});
});
</script>
Example of markup
<ul id="testName">
<li class="testID">Persons Name</li>
<blockquote class="testimonial">
<span class="bqStart">“</span>
Testimoinal here
<span class="bqEnd">”</span><br /><br />
<span class="testAuthor"><b>Name</b><a target="_blank" href="#">Website</a> Company</span>
</blockquote>
As a side note this is working fine in FF and Safari
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

It's probably not working in IE because it's not valid markup: you can't have a blockquote as a direct child of a UL, so IE probably stores them in some weird place in the DOM tree which means .next doesn't find them. Can you move the blockquote elements into the li?

Is .testimonial the class you have given to your lists? <ul> or <ol>
It seems as if you are trying to get the next testimonial list to show, when infact you are actually getting the next <li> which has a class of .testimonial which I suspect is incorrect as you are using .testID as the class for your list items.
Please try this instead:
$(this).parent().next(".testimonial").fadeIn("slow");
