Image preview by javascript
Comments (1) Here I will show how to display image preview before uploading to server side.
#HTML
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script class="jsbin" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<meta charset=utf-8 />
<title>JS Bin</title>
<!--[if IE]>
<script src="http://html5shiv.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/html5.js"></script>
<![endif]-->
<style>
article, aside, figure, footer, header, hgroup,
menu, nav, section { display: block; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<input type='file' onchange="showImagePreview(this);" />
<img id="image_preview" src="#" alt="your image" />
</body>
</html>
#Javascript
function showImagePreview(input) {
if (input.files && input.files[0]) {
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onload = function (e) {
$('#image_preview
.attr('src', e.target.result)
.width(150)
.height(200);
};
reader.readAsDataURL(input.files[0]);
}
}
Note: This method is not worked in IE as files property of file field is not supported by IE browser
