I wanted to know how to display a photo that the user uploads on a website using html and javascript. I tried using code I found on another stackoverflow question but it didn't work for me. Here is the code I tried in chrome, firefox and safari. Any help is appreciated
HTML:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<link class="jsbin" href="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1/themes/base/jquery-ui.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<script class="jsbin" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script class="jsbin" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.8.0/jquery-ui.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="readURL(this);" />
<img id="blah" src="#" alt="your image" />
</body>
</html>
Javascript:
function readURL(input) {
if (input.files && input.files[0]) {
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onload = function (e) {
$('#blah')
.attr('src', e.target.result)
.width(150)
.height(200);
};
reader.readAsDataURL(input.files[0]);
}
}
Please check the below code snippet, I have tested it on Google chrome Version 66.0.3359.117 (Official Build) (64-bit) and it is working fine.
function readURL(input) {
if (input.files && input.files[0]) {
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onload = function (e) {
$('#blah').attr('src', e.target.result).width(150).height(200);
};
reader.readAsDataURL(input.files[0]);
}
}
