Show Link on image at hovering in jquery

Question

I'm using Bootstrap 3 and jQuery 1.9.1 to make a website where profile picture is shown in a <li> tag. I want to show the link of "Update Image" when I'm hovering over the image. So far I've managed to fade the image on hovering but I'm unable to show a link or text on hovering over image. Here are my codes,

JQUERY

$(function () {
    $(".img-profile").hover(
        function () {
            $(this).fadeTo(200, 0.45);
        },
        function () {
            $(this).fadeTo(200, 1);
        });
});

CSS

.img-profile {
    margin-top: 10px;
    width: 200px;
    height: 250px;
}

HTML

<div class="navbar-default sidebar" role="navigation">
    <div class="sidebar-nav navbar-collapse">
        <ul class="nav" id="side-menu">
            <li>
                <img class="img-responsive img-rounded img-profile" src="myimage.png" alt="profile_pic" />
            </li>
        </ul>
    </div>
</div>

I've searched other sources but none of them works since it'll bug my own css styles. How can I show a link at the middle of the image on hovering? Need this help badly! Thanks.

Hope, if you want to do it without Jquery - even though if you want to manage it using jquery, it can also be done.. not a big issue

 .img-profile { margin-top: 10px; width: 200px; /* if image is bigger it will adjust according to parent width */ height: 250px; display: inline-block; } .img-wrap { display: inline-block; position: relative; } .img-wrap:hover .img-profile { opacity: 0.5; } .img-wrap .hover-div { display: none; position: absolute; text-align: center; top: 50%; left: 0; right: 0; margin-top: -10px; z-index: 10; /* width of image container */ } .img-wrap:hover .hover-div { display: inline-block; }

Yoy should try this. that is exactly you want.

 $(function () { $(".img-profile").hover( function () { $(this).fadeTo(200, 0.45); $(this).closest("li").find("a").show(); }, function () { $(this).fadeTo(200, 1); $(this).closest("li").find("a").hide(); }); }) 

 .img-profile { margin-top: 10px; width: 200px; height: 250px; } 

 <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js"></script> <div class="navbar-default sidebar" role="navigation"> <div class="sidebar-nav navbar-collapse"> <ul class="nav" id="side-menu"> <li> <img class="img-responsive img-rounded img-profile" src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/TwJmm.gif?s=328&g=1" alt="profile_pic" /><a href="https://www.google.com" style="display:none">Link that you want</a> </li> </ul> </div> </div> 

Answer 3

you can achieve all that using css alone.

html

<ul class="nav" id="side-menu">
    <li>
        <img class="img-responsive img-rounded img-profile" src="myimage.png" alt="profile_pic" />
        <p class="text">change profile picture</p>
    </li>
</ul>

css

.img-profile {
    margin-top: 10px;
    width: 200px;
    height: 250px;
    opacity: 1.0;
    filter:alpha(opacity=100);
}
.text {
    display: none;
}
img-profile:hover {
    opacity: 0.45;
    filter:alpha(opacity=45);
}
img-profile:hover + .text {
    display: block;
}
