Question

I’m using this script to animate/show the hidden text of the item:

/* Artworks Hide/show text */
$(".item").hover(function() {
    //fadein second image using jQuery fadeIn 
$(".item .art_title").fadeIn(200);
    }, function () {
//fadein first image using jQuery fadeIn
    $(".item .art_title").fadeOut(200);
});

And this is the HTML:

            <div class="item">
                <img src="img/artwork1.jpg" alt="artwork1" width="240" height="173">
                <div class="art_title">
                    <p>SWEET LIFE</p>
                </div>
                <div class="mask"></div>
            </div>

The problem is that when I hover over one item, it displays the hidden text of all itmes! How can I fix to display just the text of the item i’m hover?

Answer 1

Try changing it to $(this).find(".art_title").fadeIn(200);
and correspondingly, $(this).find(".art_title").fadeOut(200);

You are currently selecting all elements with class art-title. You want all elements within the hovered one that have class art-title.
