Initial state of overlay should be hidden

So, does it mean that we change 'remove'

display: none

after we are clicking

$("#ownersPictures a" ).click(function(event){ event.preventDefault(); var href = $(this).attr("href"); $overly.show();

});

I use code for my own project, and after applying display: none i dont get the overlay

I found my mistake, $overly.show(); , but can someone explain me this - does .show() change css property display?

Yes, the show and hide JQuery functions do change the display CSS property, and can optionally animate some of the other properties as well.

The JQuery API reference page has the complete documentation.
