To Slide Text On Image It Takes Only Two Steps:-

  1. Make a HTML file and define markup and scripting
  2. Make a CSS file and define styling

Step 1. Make a HTML file and define markup and scripting

We make a HTML file and save it with a name slide.html 

<html>
<head>
 <link href="slide.css"  rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>
 <script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.js"></script>
 <script>
  $(document).ready(function() 
  {
   $('.text_conainer').hover(function()
   {
    $('.text_div').slideToggle('slow');
   },
   function()
   {
    $('.text_div').slideToggle('slow');
   });
  });
 </script>

</head>
<body>
<div id="wrapper">
 <div class="text_conainer">
  <img src="image1.jpg"/>
  <div class="text_div">
   <h2>TalkersCode.com</h2>
   <p>Demo Of Sliding Text On Image</p>
  </div>
 </div>
</div>
</body>
</html>

In this step we create a div to hold image and text and we use jQuery slideToggle() function to slide the text up and down on hover. You may also like add text on image using PHP.

Step 2. Make a CSS file and define styling

We make a CSS file and save it with a name slide.css 

body
{
 text-align:center;
 width:100%;
 margin:0 auto;
 padding:0px;
 font-family:helvetica;
 background-color:#086A87;
}
#wrapper
{
 text-align:center;
 margin:0 auto;
 padding:0px;
 width:995px;
}
.text_conainer 
{
 width:400px;
 height:300px;
 position: relative;
 margin: 5px;
 margin-left:300px;
 color: #333;
}
.text_conainer img
{
 height:300px;
 width:400px;
}
.text_conainer .text_div 
{
 display: none;
 opacity: 0.8;
 background:#58ACFA;
 width: 400px;
 position: absolute;
 bottom: 0px;
 padding: 5px;
 box-sizing:border-box;
 text-align:center;
 color:white;
}

In this step we make our 'text_conainer' relative and 'text_div' absolute remember this without using these positions the text will never slide over image.
