In this article, we will learn to implement a smooth transition of background images using jQuery and CSS.
Approach:
- First, we add a transparent background image using the background-image property in CSS in the style tag.
background-image: url(white.jpg);
- For the transition background image, we use the transition property in CSS and add a transition to the background image in the style tag.
transition: background-image 3s;
- In the script section, we create an image object and add the source of the image that needs to be transitioned. On image load, we call a function that adds background-image using the css() method in JQuery.
JavaScript Code snippet:
var image = new Image(); // Image for transition image.src = "geek.png"; image.onload = function () { $(".element").css("background-image", "url('" + image.src + "')"); };
Example:Below is the full implementation of the above approach.
HTML
<!DOCTYPE html> < html >
< head >
<!-- JQuery CDN -->
< script src =
</ script >
< style >
body {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
.element {
background-image: url(
width: 60%;
height: 100%;
padding: 200px;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
transition: background-image 3s;
}
</ style >
</ head >
< body >
< div class = "element" ></ div >
< script >
var image = new Image();
// Image for transition
image.src =
image.onload = function () {
$(".element").css("background-image",
"url('" + image.src + "')");
};
</ script >
</ body >
</ html >
