get real image size

[Dormilich]

Hi,

I wonder, if there is a possibility to determine the real size (width/height) of an image in JavaScript. something like Gecko’s naturalWidth/naturalHeight. in FF/Safari I can get the values, but that doesn’t work for Chrome and Opera.

hmmm ... might be that this is of some help?

kind regards

it seems it takes the image dimensions immediately after loading the source and before the styling of the image applies … maybe I can make something of that (but I don’t install jQuery just for that)

[gits]

me too ... wouldn't do that :) ... just thought to show the link as a ref on how to try to achieve that goal ...

kind regards

seems like I don’t get it without jQuery (i.e. test script failed)

hmmm ... might be that a xmlhttprequest and php's getimagesize() would be a good idea? this could even be used before sending a page so that a page could include a javascript 'image-info' object? ... seems better than a JavaScript solution?

kind regards

is there anything without requiring a server script? (like a HEAD request …)

[gits]

none that i'm aware of ... sorry ... didn't even had such a requirement before so there might be possibilities that i just don't know :)

kind regards

darn, were it for the file size, a HEAD Request would be perfect …
