How to place Text over an Image with HTML and CSS? - With Source code

Text over image with example

Here we will write text over image with the help of HTML and CSS. So, let's start with HTML code first.

HTML Code

In this HTML code, we are taking a class named mainBlock. We will put our image and text in this class. And we are taking another class named imgText which is a subclass of mainBlock class, we will put text in this subclass. See the HTML code architecture in the code block below.

<div class="mainBlock">
<img src="" alt="Notebook" style="width:100%;">
<div class="imgText">
<heading>Text Over Image</heading>
<p>Type your text here that you want to place over an image. Try to write a short paragraph here as a long paragraph will cover most of the image area and covering the entire image with text is not praise worthy.</p>
</div>
</div>

In place of heading you are required to give your heading such as h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6. Recommended heading h1 or h2.

CSS Code

With the help of CSS we will do some DOM (Document Object Model) like width of the block, image alignment, opacity, margin, padding, and more. See the CSS code below to understant how we do this.

.mainBlock {
position: relative;
max-width: 800px;
margin: 0 auto;
}

.mainBlock img {vertical-align: middle;}

.mainBlock .imgText {
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
background: rgb(0, 0, 0); /* Fallback color */
background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5); /* Black background with 0.5 opacity */
color: #f1f1f1;
width: 100%;
padding: 20px;
}
