HTML5: Display local images without going to server
Wednesday, January 25th, 2012Note: assuming jquery
// get the input element
var $fileElement = $("input[type='file']");
var $image = $("img:first");
// on change
$fileElement.on("change",function(){
if (this.files && this.files.length > 0){
var file = this.files[0];
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onload = function(e) {
$img.attr("src", e.target.result);
}
reader.readAsDataURL(file);
}
});
