Whenever I hover over my divs, I want them to change color. However, the code doesn't seem to be working as expected when I try to do so. I suspect that the issue might be related to the z-index property used in the class that I am trying to hover over.
Below is the HTML with accompanying script:
$(".eventContents").hover(
function() {
$(".eventContents").css("background-color", "yellow");
})
//making events square
var cw = $('.eventContain').width();
$('.eventContain').css({
'height': cw + 'px'
});.eventContain {
position: relative;
margin-bottom: 10px;
z-index: -1;
background-size: cover;
}
.eventContents {
color: white;
padding: 5px;
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
}
.eventContents h2 {
font-size: 2em;
font-family: 'Montserrat', sans-serif;
}
.eventContents p {
font-size: 1em;
font-family: 'Roboto', sans-serif;
}<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<section id="events">

<div class="col-sm-4">
<div class="eventContain" style="background-image:url(img/events/leaf.jpg)">
