Struggling to achieve a captivating overlay effect with a slider using EasySlider 1.7, incorporating both images and corresponding text. However, encountering difficulties in aligning the text correctly on the page.
The black overlay visible on the main scrolling image is where the text should be positioned. When removing the code for scrolling the text, it appears in the correct place. Yet, upon adding the script to make the text scroll simultaneously, the text seems to vanish.
Here's my Code.
HTML:
<div class="filler">
<div class="filler-picture">
<div class="filler-img">
<ul>{% for project in rotations %}
<li><img src="{% thumbnail project.key_image.get_absolute_url 559x361 crop,upscale %}" width="559" height="361" alt="{{ project.title }}" /></li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
</div>
<div class="filler-mask">
<img src="{{ MEDIA_URL }}img/filler.png" alt="filler" />
</div>
<div class="filler-text">
<ul>
<li>
<span class="filler-text-left">WaterTiger</span>
<span class="filler-text-right">Project watertiger is a test project whilst we get all the site together, call it a filler if you must, there is no project watertiger your only dreaming.</span>
</li>
<li>
<span class="filler-text-left">Dragonfly</span>
<span class="filler-text-right">Project Dragonfly is a test project whilst we get all the site together, call it a filler if you must, there is no project dragonfly your only dreaming.</span>
</li>
<li>
<span class="filler-text-left">Spacemunch</span>
<span class="filler-text-right">Project Spacemunch is a test project whilst we get all the site together, call it a filler if you must, there is no project Spacemunch your only dreaming.</span>
</li>
</ul>
CSS:
.filler {
position: relative;
margin-left:20px;
height:361px;
width:559px;
float:left;
}
.filler-mask {
position: absolute;
left:0; top:0;
height:361px;
width:559px;
z-index: 100;
}
.filler-img{
position: absolute;
left:0; top:0;
height:361px;
width:559px;
z-index: 50;
}
.filler-text {
width: 558px;
height: 68px;
position: absolute;
z-index: 200;
color: #fff;
}
.filler-text li {
list-style-type: none;
z-index: 1000;
}
.filler-text-left {
width: 169px;
float: left;
height: 48px;
padding: 10px;
font-size: 18pt;
font-weight: 100;
}
.filler-text-right {
width: 340px;
float: right;
height: 48px;
padding: 10px;
font-size: 10pt;
}
EasySlider Javascript:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$(".filler-text").easySlider({
auto: true,
continuous: true,
speed: 1800,
pause: 5000,
nextId: "next2",
prevId: "prev2"
});
$(".filler-img").easySlider({
auto: true,
continuous: true,
speed: 1800,
pause: 5000,
nextId: "next2",
prevId: "prev2"
});
});
</script>
Note: Attempted placing the text script under the image script without altering the appearance. Seeking assistance to resolve this issue.
