So basically, I am trying to save an image into localStorage
, and then load that same image on the next page.
I came across this great example: http://jsfiddle.net/8V9w6/
Although, I have absolutely no idea how this works since I have only ever used localStorage for extremely small strings.
I have an image that gets changed via a file upload handled by jQuery
<img id="bannerImg" src="images/image-placeholder.jpg" alt="Banner Image" style="display:none;" width="100%" height="200px" />
The jsfiddle
link I added above allows multiple file upload, and that is definitely something I would not like to have.
What I need to know is what should I be placing on the first page to save the image, and what should I be placing on the second page to load the image?
I have a save
button that will be processing everything.
Something like this ?
var img = new Image();
img.src = 'mypicture.png';
img.load = function() {
var canvas = document.createElement('canvas');
document.body.appendChild(canvas);
var context = canvas.getContext('2d');
context.drawImage(img, 0, 0);
var data = context.getImageData(x, y, img.width, img.height).data;
localStorage.setItem('image', data); // save image data
};
Get the localStorage on the second page; try something like this:
window.onload = function() {
var picture = localStorage.getItem('image');
var image = document.createElement('img');
image.src = picture;
document.body.appendChild(image);
};
