Change a div background with jQuery - javascript

I need to change my background div with some other images.
I want that first, myDiv load the first background image on css style, and then within 2/3 seconds of delay add a fade effect change the background image.
If it's possible, I need to do this with jQuery.

You cannot do fade or any other transitions directly on the background image. You can however add another div with second image as its background and fadeOut() the original one.

Does this do what you you want?

EDIT: A bit more Googling - this sounds like what you are trying to do...

Edit: another go - THis? http://css-tricks.com/forums/discussion/9621/solved-is-it-possible-to-add-jquery-cycle-to-background-imagess/p1

this is not fade effect but you can delay and change background image like this.
function changebackground(){
$('#divID').css("background-image", "url(/myimage.jpg)");
}
setTimeout(function() { changebackground();}, 3000);

this might be good workaround
http://jquery.malsup.com/cycle/
after you position on top divs with cycle it can be your background - cycle.js give's you lot of options.
if you want only rotate image's in bacground you must first preload that image and second you must put it in other div so that both divs can animate.

There is no support for this, even if you add all the functionality of jQuery UI.
You could append a temporary image, absolutely positioned inside the div for which u want to change background. Let the image fade in, and once it's fully opaque, swap background image for the div. This will be problematic if you have a repeated background, however.
var im1 = 'picture1.png';
var im2 = 'picture2.png';
$('#divID').css({'background-image': 'url("'+im1+'")', 'position': 'relative'});
$('#divID').on('click', function() {
var img = $('<img />', {
src: im2,
}).css({
position: 'absolute',
top: 0,
left: 0
}).hide();
$(this).append(img);
img.fadeIn('slow', function() {
$(this).parent().css('background-image', 'url("'+im2+'")');
$(this).remove();
});
});
Of course, you should move the CSS I included in my script to a .css file, and use a class instead, for more readable code.

Smooth way to replace background-image

I’m quite new to jQuery and JS and been asked to write a script that will be loading background-image progressively - I mean that low quality image should appear immediately and when full size image is loaded should replace the small one.
I found some tips how to do something similar by layering <img /> on top of background-image however in my case i have to deal with background-image only, so I have made this:
$('.img-loader').each(function(){
var box = this;
var smallImg = $(this).attr('style');
var bigImg = smallImg.replace('.jpg)', 'big.jpg)');
var imgUrl = bigImg.replace('background-image: url', '');
var imgUrlS = imgUrl.replace(/[{()}]/g, '');
console.log(imgUrlS);
$('<img/>').attr('src', imgUrlS).load(function(){
$(this).remove();
$(box).attr('style', bigImg);
});
})
The script basically does the job but in that moment when the image gets replaced there is a quite noticeable ‘shake’.
Any ideas how to make transition smoother or anyone knows what causing this 'shake'?
Edit: As suggested I'm adding a markup snipped of where script has to be applied.
<div class="about__section__bgimage img-loader"
style="background-image: url(<?php echo $contentBlock->imageurl ?>)"></div>
I suggest you create two separate elements with the same size, overlapping each other, with position: absolute; make one of them visible with the original bg image (using opacity: 1). The second one invisible (using opacity:0)
Once the higher quality image is completely loaded, set the opacity of the original image to 0 and the new image to 1.
use a css transition on the opacity property to make the opacities change smoothly.
you have to use animation for this. Use any of them according to your scenario enjoy it !!!

jQuery fadeOut and fadeIn background-image

When I click a certain link I want the background-image to fadeOut, change to another image and then fadeIn.
The code I have:
$('.link').on('click',function(){
var image = $(this).data('image');
$('#div-with-the-bgimage').css('background-image', 'url('+image+')');
})
I tried this:
$('.link').on('click',function(){
var image = $(this).data('image');
$('#div-with-the-bgimage').fadeOut('3000').fadeIn('3000').css('background-image', 'url(' + image + ')');
})
but this didn't work, what am I doing wrong? (I'm new to jQuery)
EDIT:
I solved this with Rory McCrossan answer:
$('.link').on('click',function(){
var image = $(this).data('image');
$('#div-with-the-bgimage').fadeOut('3000', function() {
$(this).css('background-image', 'url('+image+')').fadeIn('3000');
});
});
But now this fadesOut to a white background and and then fadesIn to the image, giving a sensation of a flash? Is there a way to load the image before?
You need to chain the fades by calling the fadeIn after the fadeOut has completed. You can do this by using the callback function parameter. Try this:
$('.link').on('click',function(){
var image = $(this).data('image');
$('#div-with-the-bgimage').fadeOut('3000', function() {
$(this).css('background-image', 'url('+image+')').fadeIn('3000');
});
});
Wouldn't it be much simpler if you append / remove a div with the image you want and not change anything in the background? Just an example:
<div data-image="some-other-image.jpg" class="appendhere" style="position:relative">some content and an image background here</div>
Now using jQuery, you may put the image in the above data attribute on top, with 0 opacity, fade it in and out:
$('.link').on('click',function(){
var image = $(this).data('image');
var appendcode = '<div class="appended" style="display:none;position:absolute;width:200px;height:200px;overflow:hidden"><img src="' + image + '"></div>';
$('#div-with-the-bgimage').append(appendcode);
$('.appended').css({'opacity': 0, 'display':'block', 'z-index': 999}).fadeIn('3000', function() {
$(this).fadeOut('3000');
});
});
I used some inline styles there to point you need to make the wrapper relative positioned and the appended absolute positioned and with a higher z-index, you can make it much more elegant by including these in your CSS of course.
U can combine animate and opacity or use fadeOut and fadeIn functions.
Check out this link jsfiddle to see a working example using fadeOut and fadeIn.
U can also specify a unique img tag with data-gallery attribute storing multiple url's for images to toggle between all of them. Check this other link jsfiddle to see a working example. Click on the button Toggle to change the image.
Hope it useful!

Add Transparent Image on top of other Images with JavaScript

I need to add a Transparent image on top of all images on a page. The goal is if a user were to do a simple right click and save of an image, they would save the transparent image.
I do realize this is not a guaranteed method and that none exist to prevent image theft but simply a measure that a client wants added to prevent your average non tech person from saving images.
Using JavaScript I would like to find all images or all images within a certain Div.
Apply a new image overlay on top of these images that will have the same width and height of the image they are covering
I am not sure how to do this with JavaScript and was hoping someone would have a quick fix or example. I was unable to find anything so far on Google or SO. Appreciate any help
I have this JS which gets all images on a page so far...
// Get all images on a Page
function checkimages() {
var images = document.images;
for (var i=0; i<images.length; i++){
var img =images[i].src;
// Add new transparent image on top of this image
alert(img);
}
}
I would advise you to work with jQuery (or similar library) to keep things easier. I would even write a small jquery extension to make it easy to recycle the code, and apply it on any div (or other wrapper), wich child images you want to be overlayed.
My code would look something like this:
// jquery plugin to create overlays
// src is the url of the overlay image
// apply to any container that contains images to be overlayed
$.fn.overlayImages = function(src) {
// loop trough the images
$(this).find('img').each(function() {
// cache some variables
var $img = $(this);
var $parent = $img.parent();
// make the parent relative, if not yet absolute or fixed, for easy positioning
if ($parent.css('position') !== 'fixed' && $parent.css('position') !== 'absolute') {
$parent.css('position', 'relative');
}
// get the position of the image
var position = $img.position();
// clone the image
var $overlay = $img.clone();
// set the styling, based on the img, for exact positioning
$overlay.css({
top: position.top,
left: position.left,
position: 'absolute',
width: $img.width(),
height: $img.height()
});
// change the src attribute for the overlay
$overlay.attr('src', src);
// insert the overlay to the DOM
$overlay.insertAfter($img);
});
}
// when the DOM is loaded (not just ready, the images need to be there to copy their position and size)
$(window).load(function() {
// apply the overlay plugin to the wrapper of the images
$('#replace-images').overlayImages("http://www.riptideinnovations.com/images/watermark.png");
});
I added the step by step explanation inside the code as comments, but do feel free to ask if you want any further explanation.
I set up a small fiddle to demonstrate: http://jsfiddle.net/pP96f/6/
I don't know if this would help, but you could make your images all div's with backgrounds like this:
<div style="background-image: url('<your_image>');"></div>

How To Fade In A background-position change for a background image in jquery?

I am using a giant sprite for an element that changes different states at hover. I was wondering if there was a way to have the hover state image fade in? You can view my code live - here
Here's my code for the hover state for each span
$(".hf-1").hover(
function () {
$(this).css("background-position","0 -121px");
$(".hf-2").css("background-position","0 -242px");
$(".hf-3").css("background-position","0 -363px");
$(".hf-4").css("background-position","0 -484px");
},
function () {}
);
I am using Jquery to do the background image hover instead of basic css cause i have multiple hovers that need to be reset.
Thanks for any help.
Use something like this:
$(this).animate({"background-position": "0 -121px"}, "slow");
Rinse and repeat for the other three.
You would need to double-stack the backgrounds and fade from to the other. Won't be able to fade within the same container.
Or you can just use jquery's native fadeIn API.
$(this).click(function () {
$("this").fadeIn("slow");
});

adding fade to jquery image replacement

Im creating a nav that uses jquery to replace the image on rollover. Here is the code I am using:
http://peps.ca/blog/easy-image-rollover-script-with-jquery/
basically, you add a suffix (_o) to the filename and when you rollover the src, jquery replaces it with the (_o).png. I want to add fade so when there is a rollover, the transition isn't instant, rather there is a quick, elegant fade. Any ideas?
$('#the_image).hover(function() {
$(this).fadeOut(function() {
$(this).attr('src', $(this).attr('src').replace(".png", "_o.png")).fadeIn();
});
}, function {
$(this).fadeOut(function() {
$(this).attr('src', $(this).attr('src').replace("_o.png", ".png")).fadeIn();
});
});
rather than replace, you'll have to overlay a new image and fade it in, waiting till the transition has completed.
something like...
$('.my_img').parent().append($('.my_img').clone().attr('src','my_img_o.jpg').fadeIn('slow'))
assuming the element is absolutely positioned
You could layer a second (hidden) element over the top of your default image, then see about fading that one in and out with a rollover.
