Menu
To determine whether an image has been completely loaded, you can use the HTMLImageElement interface's complete attribute. It returns true if the image has completely loaded and false otherwise. We can use this with naturalWidth or naturalHeight properties, which would return 0 when the image failed to load.
Summary. The load event occurs when the document has been completely loaded, including dependent resources like JavaScript files, CSS files, and images. The <img> and <script> elements also support the load event.
onload event is mainly used within the element body to execute a script once a web page has loaded all contents, including images, script, CSS files, etc. The browsers used will allow us to track the loading of external resources such as images, scripts, iframes, etc.
.complete + callback
This is a standards compliant method without extra dependencies, and waits no longer than necessary:
var img = document.querySelector('img')
function loaded() {
alert('loaded')
}
if (img.complete) {
loaded()
} else {
img.addEventListener('load', loaded)
img.addEventListener('error', function() {
alert('error')
})
}

Image.onload() will often work.
To use it, you'll need to be sure to bind the event handler before you set the src attribute.

Example Usage:
window.onload = function () {
var logo = document.getElementById('sologo');
logo.onload = function () {
alert ("The image has loaded!");
};
setTimeout(function(){
logo.src = 'https://edmullen.net/test/rc.jpg';
}, 5000);
}; <html>
<head>
<title>Image onload()</title>
</head>
<body>
<img src="#" alt="This image is going to load" id="sologo"/>
<script type="text/javascript">
</script>
</body>
</html>You can use the .complete property of the Javascript image class.
I have an application where I store a number of Image objects in an array, that will be dynamically added to the screen, and as they're loading I write updates to another div on the page. Here's a code snippet:
var gAllImages = [];
function makeThumbDivs(thumbnailsBegin, thumbnailsEnd)
{
gAllImages = [];
for (var i = thumbnailsBegin; i < thumbnailsEnd; i++)
{
var theImage = new Image();
theImage.src = "thumbs/" + getFilename(globals.gAllPageGUIDs[i]);
gAllImages.push(theImage);
setTimeout('checkForAllImagesLoaded()', 5);
window.status="Creating thumbnail "+(i+1)+" of " + thumbnailsEnd;
// make a new div containing that image
makeASingleThumbDiv(globals.gAllPageGUIDs[i]);
}
}
function checkForAllImagesLoaded()
{
for (var i = 0; i < gAllImages.length; i++) {
if (!gAllImages[i].complete) {
var percentage = i * 100.0 / (gAllImages.length);
percentage = percentage.toFixed(0).toString() + ' %';
userMessagesController.setMessage("loading... " + percentage);
setTimeout('checkForAllImagesLoaded()', 20);
return;
}
}
userMessagesController.setMessage(globals.defaultTitle);
}
Life is too short for jquery.
function waitForImageToLoad(imageElement){
return new Promise(resolve=>{imageElement.onload = resolve})
}
var myImage = document.getElementById('myImage');
var newImageSrc = "https://pmchollywoodlife.files.wordpress.com/2011/12/justin-bieber-bio-photo1.jpg?w=620"
myImage.src = newImageSrc;
waitForImageToLoad(myImage).then(()=>{
// Image have loaded.
console.log('Loaded lol')
});<img id="myImage" src="">If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
