Overlay-like Effect with jQuery


Today we will create a slick overlay effect with jQuery that does not use an overlay. The idea is to change the opacity or the color of certain elements in order to make it look like as if we are covering the content with an overlay. This allows to focus certain elements in a web page while making others appear less prominent.
First, we need to define which elements we want to apply the effect to, meaning that we either want to animate the element’s opacity or color, or both. To the elements we want to fade, we will give the class “e-fade” and to the elements we want to change the color, we will give the class “e-color”. For any of these elements, no matter if we apply one or the other, or both classes, we will need to give the class “effect”.
