Tips for making an appended element match the height of an image

After embedding the div .soonOverlay into specific .smallCatalogBlock's, I am facing difficulty in adjusting the height of soonOverlay to match only the height of the img within smallCatalogBlock. Currently, its height extends throughout the entire container.

Can anyone identify where I might be going wrong or suggest a solution?

$('.smallCatalogBlock').each(function() {
if ($(this).data('availability') === 'No') {
$(this).append('<div class="soonOverlay"><div class="soonOverlayInner"><div class="total-center"><p class="dGw">Coming Soon</p></div></div></div>');
console.log("It should be working");
}
});
.smallCatalogWrap {
width: 100%;
height: auto;
margin: 60px 0;
}
.smallCatalogBlock {
width: 60%;
height: auto;
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: top;
margin: 20px auto;
text-decoration: none;
}
.smallCatalogBlock img {
width: 80%;
height: auto;
box-shadow: 10px 5px 5px rgba(0,0,0,.3);
display: block;
margin: 0px auto 15px auto;
}
.smallCatalogTitle {
font-family: 'Nunito', sans-serif;
color: #4d4d4d;
font-size: 1.3rem;
text-align: center;
display: block;
font-weight: 400;
}
.comingSoonSmall {
position: relative;
}
.comingSoonSmall .soonOverlay {
width: 80%;
height: 100%;
background: #b82222;
opacity: .8;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
margin: 0 10%;
}
.soonOverlayInner {
position: relative;
min-height: 350px;
}
.soonOverlayInner .dGw {
font-weight: 600;
text-transform: uppercase;
font-size: 2.5rem;
}

Answer №1

I made some updates to the script provided below.

$('.smallCatalogBlock').each(function() {
if ($(this).data('availability') === 'No') {
$(this).append('<div class="soonOverlay"><div class="soonOverlayInner"><div class="total-center"><p class="dGw">Coming Soon</p></div></div></div>');
console.log("It should work now");
      var img_w = $('.smallCatalogBlock > img').width();
      var img_h = $('.smallCatalogBlock > img').height();
      $('.soonOverlay').width(img_w).height(img_h);
}
    
});
.smallCatalogWrap {
width: 100%;
height: auto;
margin: 60px 0;
}
.smallCatalogBlock {
width: 60%;
height: auto;
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: top;
margin: 20px auto;
text-decoration: none;
}
.smallCatalogBlock img {
width: 80%;
height: auto;
box-shadow: 10px 5px 5px rgba(0,0,0,.3);
display: block;
margin: 0px auto 15px auto;
}
.smallCatalogTitle {
font-family: 'Nunito', sans-serif;
color: #4d4d4d;
font-size: 1.3rem;
text-align: center;
display: block;
font-weight: 400;
}
.comingSoonSmall {
position: relative;
}
.comingSoonSmall .soonOverlay {
width: 80%;
height: 100%;
background: #b82222;
opacity: .8;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
margin: 0 10%;
}
.soonOverlayInner {
position: relative;
min-height: 350px;
}
.soonOverlayInner .dGw {
font-weight: 600;
text-transform: uppercase;
font-size: 2.5rem;
}
