Image Replacement in Bootstrap using text-hide Class

Bootstrap allows us to replace the text with background image for any text element like paragraph element, heading element etc. With the use of .text-hide class, we can replace an element’s content with a background image.

Syntax:

<element class = "text-hide" 
         style = "background-image: url('Specify URL of image here');">
</element>

In the above syntax, the text-hide class is used to first hide the text of the element and a background image is added to the element using the CSS background-image property.

Example:




<html>
<head>
    <!-- Link Bootstrap CSS and JS -->
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/css/bootstrap.min.css">
    <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
    <script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
    <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Lobster" rel="stylesheet">
</head>
<body>
    <h1 class="text-hide" 
        style="background-image: url('https://media.w3wiki.net/wp-content/cdn-uploads/w3wikiLogoHeader.png'); 
               background-repeat: no-repeat; 
               width: 500px; height: 500px; ">
        w3wiki
    </h1>
</body>
</html>
