In this tutorial, we will use jQuery to apply the fading effect on an image element. In the previous tutorial, we have seen the list of jQuery fading methods.
In this example, we are using fading effect on the mouse-over and mouse-out events of the image elements. In this event, the jQuery fadeTo() function is called by passing the appropriate image opacity.
