How can I output the text to the parent <div>'s <span>? What am i doing wrong? If there are any better solutions than working with spans and .parent(), please let me know.

HTML:

<div>
<span></span> <!--the span where i want to output "troll" and "dwarf"-->
<a href="#" class="heroes" alt="troll">Icon</a>
<a href="#" class="heroes" alt="dwarf">Icon</a>
</div>

<div>
<span></span <!--the span where i want to output "witch"-->
><a href="#" class="heroes" alt="witch">Icon</a>
</div>

<div> 
<span></span> <!--etc...-->
<a href="#" class="heroes" alt="barbarian">Icon</a>
</div>

<div>
<span></span>
<a href="#" class="heroes" alt="necromancer">Icon</a>
</div>

JS:

$('.heroes').hover(function() {
    var hero = $(this).attr('alt');
    $(this).parent('span').text(hero);
}, function() {
    $(this).parent('span').text("");
});

Thanks

$(this).siblings('span').text(hero);

The span is a sibling of the anchor, not it's parent.

Indent your HTML, and you see it very easily:

<div> <!--The parent of the span and anchors!-->
    <span></span> <!--Sibling of the anchors!-->
    <a href="#" class="heroes" alt="troll">Icon</a>
    <a href="#" class="heroes" alt="dwarf">Icon</a>
</div>

Note: alt isn't a valid HTML attribute for an anchor.

Use:

$(this).closest('div').find('span').text(hero);

<span> is sibling not parent of your links, you can find it based on actual <div> parent.
