Defer image and replacement loaded

I have a JS function that once the page is loaded swaps the assets from a transparent gif to full images via the data-src below.
<img src="1x1.gif" data-src="full-photo.png" class="asset" /> // My image
window.addEventListener('load', function() {
defer_images();
function defer_images() {
var loadedImages = 0;
var imgDefer = document.getElementsByClassName('asset');
for (var i = 0; i < imgDefer.length; i++) {
if (imgDefer[i].getAttribute('data-src')) {
imgDefer[i].setAttribute('src',imgDefer[i].getAttribute('data-src'));
var iWidth = imgDefer[i].naturalWidth; // Check image exists
if (iWidth) {
loadedImages++;
} else {
console.log("Image missing: "+imgDefer[i].getAttribute('data-src'));
}
}
// all images exist and have been replaced
if (imgDefer.length === loadedImages) {
doThings();
}
}
}
});
This seems to work fine on a cached page. But if I reload the page and switch tabs – the code doesn't complete as loadedImages++ is never fired.
I can't use setInterval or setTimeout to re-check as this code is used in DoubleClick.
Any help would be really appreciated.

You can detect that images are loaded by using the onload event and failed to load using onerror.
for (var i = 0; i < imgDefer.length; i++) {
var img = imgDefer[i];
if (img.getAttribute('data-src')) {
img.addEventListener("load", function() {
loadedImages++;
});
img.addEventListener("error", function() {
console.log("Image missing: "+ this.getAttribute("data-src"))
});
img.src = img.getAttribute('data-src');
}
}
The reason it fails for non-cached is because it takes time to load the image, and your for loop is fast. Use the events to trigger when the image is loaded.
You can read more here.
Note: Detecting that all images are loaded may require using promises:
function loadImage(src) {
return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
const img = new Image();
img.addEventListener("load", () => resolve(img));
img.addEventListener("error", err => reject(err));
img.src = src;
// append to the dom or replace here
});
};
Then you can use then() and catch()

get uploaded image height and width on callback -javascript

I need to load multiple image asynchronously from file field and them check if the dimensions are valid or not. I am pretty close, I just need to get the height of previously loaded image on call back. This is my effort so far:
let files = this.fileUpload.files; //get all uploaded files
for (var i = 0, f; f = files[i]; i++) { //iterate over uploaded file
console.log(f);
let img = new Image();
img.name=f.name;
img.size=f.size;
img.onload = () =>{alert(img.height)} //it is giving height here
if (img.complete) { //callback
alert(img.name + 'loaded');
load_count++;
library_store.uploaded_image.push(
{
height:img.height,
width:img.width, // not coming, just wondering how to get
//the image height from load
name:img.name,
size:img.size
}
);
}
if(load_count === uploaded_file_count){ // if all files are loaded
//do all validation here , I need height and width here
}
What is the best way to do this?

Wouldn't you want to move library_store logic to img.onload? Like below:
let files = this.fileUpload.files; //get all uploaded files
for (var i = 0, f; f = files[i]; i++) { //iterate over uploaded file
console.log(f);
let img = new Image();
img.name=f.name;
img.size=f.size;
img.onload = function() {
// hoping that ```this``` here refers to ```img```
alert(this.name + 'loaded');
load_count++;
library_store.uploaded_image.push({
height:this.height,
width:this.width,
name:this.name,
size:this.size
});
if(load_count === uploaded_file_count){ // if all files are loaded
//do all validation here , I need height and width here
}
}
// img.onload = () =>{alert(img.height)} //it is giving height here
/*
if (img.complete) { //callback
alert(img.name + 'loaded');
load_count++;
library_store.uploaded_image.push({
height:img.height,
width:img.width,
name:img.name,
size:img.size
});
if(load_count === uploaded_file_count){ // if all files are loaded
//do all validation here , I need height and width here
}
}
*/
}

First let's see why you will always fall in this if(img.complete) block even though your images have not been loaded yet:
The complete property of the HTMLImageElement only tells if its resource is being loaded at the time you get the property.
It will report true if the loading succeed, failed, and if the src has not been set.
var img = new Image();
console.log('no-src', img.complete);
img.onerror = function() {
console.log('in-error', img.complete);
img.src = "data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAYAAAAfFcSJAAAADUlEQVQImWNgYGBgAAAABQABh6FO1AAAAABJRU5ErkJggg=="
};
img.onload = function() {
console.log('in-load', img.complete);
}
img.src = "/some/fake-path.png";
console.log('while loading', img.complete);
And, at the time you get it, you didn't set this src attribute yet, so it will report true even though your image has not yet loaded its resource.
So what you want is an image preloader:
function preloadImages(srcArray, mustAllSucceed) {
return Promise.all(srcArray.map(loadImage));
function loadImage(src) {
return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
var img = new Image();
img.onload = success;
img.onerror = mustAllSucceed ? success : reject;
img.src = src;
function success() {
resolve(img)
};
});
}
}
preloadImages(['https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/55/John_William_Waterhouse_A_Mermaid.jpg', 'https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9b/Gran_Mezquita_de_Isfah%C3%A1n%2C_Isfah%C3%A1n%2C_Ir%C3%A1n%2C_2016-09-20%2C_DD_34-36_HDR.jpg'])
.then(images => {
images.forEach(img => console.log(img.src, img.width, img.height));
}, true);

Cannot get file size after uploading using JavaScript

I need to validate one file field with required width,height and if file has not uploaded using JavaScript but its not happening like this. Here is my code:
<input type="file" name="copImage" id="copImage" class="form-control" value="" onchange="setBackgroundImage(event);">
function setBackgroundImage(e){
var url = URL.createObjectURL(e.target.files[0]);
bg = new Image();
bg.src = url;
bg.onload = function () {
bgLoaded = true;
backImageHeight=this.height;
backImageWidth=this.width;
};
console.log('size bg',backImageHeight,backImageWidth);
}
Here I could not get the file height and width. I also to check the if file has not uploaded.

Pu the log statement inside the onload function. This is because you are trying to access the variable outside its scope, else define those variables outside onload function
bg.onload = function() {
var bgLoaded = true,
backImageHeight = this.height,
backImageWidth = this.width;
console.log('size bg',backImageHeight,backImageWidth);
};
DEMO
suppose i have one button and without selecting file if I am clicking
on the file alert should say to select the file.
Seems you cannot do that with onchange event handler because if file is not loaded. nothing has changed and so function wont fire. In that case you can create a variable & update its state on file upload. On clicking of the button check the variable state
var isFileLoaded = false;
function setBackgroundImage(fileValue) {
var url = URL.createObjectURL(fileValue.files[0]);
bg = new Image();
if (fileValue.value !== '') {
bg.src = url;
bg.onload = function() {
bgLoaded = true;
isFileLoaded = true;
backImageHeight = this.height;
backImageWidth = this.width;
console.log('size bg', backImageHeight, backImageWidth);
};
}
}
function buttonClick() {
if (isFileLoaded) {
} else {
alert('No file selected')
}
}
DEMO 2

Hello You just need to log your height and width inside bg.onload function.these are outside of the scope of variables.thats why you not getting the height and width like this
function setBackgroundImage(e){
var url = URL.createObjectURL(e.target.files[0]);
bg = new Image();
bg.src = url;
bg.onload = function () {
bgLoaded = true;
backImageHeight=this.height;
backImageWidth=this.width;
console.log('size bg',backImageHeight,backImageWidth);
};
}

Everything is fine in your code, you need to include console.log() within bg.onload block only like this .
function setBackgroundImage(e)
{
var url = URL.createObjectURL(e.target.files[0]);
bg = new Image();
bg.src = url;
bg.onload = function () {
bgLoaded = true;
backImageHeight=this.height;
backImageWidth=this.width;
console.log('size bg',backImageHeight,backImageWidth);
};
}
function isFileSelected()
{
return document.getElementById('copImage').files.length > 0;
}
You can use isFileSelected() function to know whether file is selected or not .

JavaScript changing image when hovering

I am trying to write a script, so that when someone hovers over an image, that same images changes to a different one, ie. I hover over up.png, and it changes to up_highlighted.png, when the mouse goes off the image it should change back.
However I can't seem to get it working despite all my attempts, here is the relevant code of what I have tried so far:
print "<img src=\"/images/up.png\" class=\"thumbsbtn1\" style=\"position:absolute;top:60px;left:1px;width:28px;\" onhover=\"hover_up()\" onclick=\"increase_rating()\">";
function hover_up(){
$(document).ready(function() {
var oldSrc = $('.thumbsbtn1').attr('src');
$('.thumbsbtn1').hover(function() {
//on hover of your element
$('.thumbsbtn1').attr('src','/images/up_hover.png');
}, function() {
//when the cursor leaves your element
$('.thumbsbtn1').attr('src', oldSrc);
});
});
}
PS. I do not wish to use sprites.

Old School: http://jsfiddle.net/PAGUp/
var elem = document.getElementById('targetImg');
var oldSrc;
elem.onmouseover = function() {
oldSrc = elem.src;
elem.src = 'http://www.eclipse-developers.com/images/up_hover.png';
}
elem.onmouseout = function() {
if(typeof oldSrc !== 'undefined') {
elem.src = oldSrc;
}
}
I'm sure the jquery is more pithy. Essentially you need a variable to hold the 'old' src URL, and mouseover and mouseout handlers to set the new URL and back it out.

You don't have to wrap $(document).ready inside hover_up function. Note that I have removed onhover from HTML
Try
print "<img src=\"/images/up.png\" class=\"thumbsbtn1\" style=\"position:absolute;top:60px;left:1px;width:28px;\" onclick=\"increase_rating()\">";
$(document).ready(function() {
var oldSrc;
$(document).on('hover', '.thumbsbtn1', function () {
oldSrc = $('.thumbsbtn1').attr('src');
$('.thumbsbtn1').attr('src','/images/up_hover.png');
}, function () {
$('.thumbsbtn1').attr('src', oldSrc);
});
});

try this
print "<img src=\"/images/up.png\" class=\"thumbsbtn1\" style=\"position:absolute;top:60px;left:1px;width:28px;\" onhover=\"hover_up(this)\" onclick=\"increase_rating()\" onmouseout=\"hover_out(this)\">";
var oldSrc;
function hover_up(e){
oldSrc = $('.thumbsbtn1').attr('src');
$('.thumbsbtn1').attr('src','/images/up_hover.png');
}
function hover_out(e){
$('.thumbsbtn1').attr('src',oldSrc);
}

make an image 'onclickable' in a js object

The js object below will, after instantiation, produce the specified image. what I'd like is to get the image to execute sayQuote when clicked in the browser. Suggestions?
function CharType()
{
this.charImage = function(whichImage)
{
var image = document.createElement("img");
image.src = "characters/"+whichImage;
document.body.appendChild(image);
}
function sayQuote()
{
alert(getQuote());
}
// this.onclick = sayQuote(); // nope, that doesn't do it!
}
the instantiation:
var stickfigure = new CharType();
stickfigure.charImage("stickfigure.png");

try this.
function CharType()
{
function sayQuote()
{
alert(getQuote());
}
this.charImage = function(whichImage)
{
var image = document.createElement("img");
image.src = "characters/"+whichImage;
image.onclick = sayQuote;
document.body.appendChild(image);
}
}
Basically, the image created in this.charImage is your image object with the onclick property, not the new object surrounding it that you created.

function CharType()
{
function sayQuote()
{
alert(getQuote());
}
this.charImage = function(whichImage)
{
var image = document.createElement("img");
image.src = "characters/"+whichImage;
image.addEventListener("click", this.sayQuote, false);
document.body.appendChild(image);
}
}
