javascript - Display paragraph text instead of [object Object] -


i making overlay pop when image clicked. overlay should have picture , paragraph in it. comes up, displays picture, not display paragraph has been hidden actual page css "display: none;" feature , shown again jquery after overlay comes up. instead, displays "[object object] paragraph should be. need show actual text of paragraph instead of registering there there...

i have looked through jquery documentation , seems me closest looking for. before, getting nothing paragraph should be. however, have worked 3 hours on , stumped. have advice?

html

<div class="inscaritem target">   <a href="../insnat.jpg">     <img src="../insnat.jpg" alt="barrows carries nationwide insurance" />   </a>   <p class="testertesty hide4target">     test!!! has passed!   </p> </div> 

css

#overlay {     background: rgba(0,0,0,.9);     width: 100%;     height: 100%;     position: fixed;     top: 0;     left: 0;     display: none;     text-align: center; }  #overlay img {     max-width: 60%;     max-height: 80%;     margin: 8% 20% 0; }  #overlay p {     color: #fff; }  .hide4target {     display: none; } 

jquery

var $overlay = $('<div id="overlay"></div>'); var $image = $("<img>"); var $caption = $("<p></p>");  //add image $overlay.append($image);  //add overlay $("body").append($overlay)  //add caption $overlay.append($caption);   //capture click event on link image $(".target a").click(function(event){     event.preventdefault();     var piclink = $(this).attr("href");     var captext = $(this).children(":hidden").show();      //update overlay image linked     $image.attr("src", piclink);      //update overlay caption text     $caption.text(captext);      //show overlay     $overlay.show();  });  //when overlay clicked  $overlay.click(function(){     //hide overlay     $overlay.hide();  }); 

in out case $(this).children(":hidden") search in tag < >, < p > located in parent tag < div class="inscaritem target" >

try this

var captext = $(this).siblings(":hidden").show();  $caption.text(captext.text());
