I know there's a load() event in jQuery which is triggered when the image has finished loading. But what if the event handler is attached after the image has finished loading?
Is there a property like $('#myimage').isLoaded() to check if the image is already loaded?
You can check the complete property of the image.

Nope, but you could make it so :)
jQuery.fn.isLoaded = function() {
return this
.filter("img")
.filter(function() { return this.complete; }).length > 0;
};
This would produce true if all images in the collection have been loaded, and false if one or more images were not. You could adapt it to suit your needs.
Plain JS in enough. Image object has complete property. Check it out here: http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/tryit.asp?filename=tryjsref_img_complete
Its a little bit hackish and I am not sure it will work everywhere. Do test at your own.
$.fn.isLoaded = function(message) {
var $this = $(this);
if($this.height() > 0 && $this.width() > 0){
return true;
}
return false;
};
$('#myimage').isLoaded()
EDIT:
This works in ff and chrome,
$.fn.isLoaded = function(message) {
var $this = $(this);
$this.hide(); // becaues firefox gives a 24*24 dimension
var w = this[0].width;
var h = this[0].height;
$this.show();
if(w > 0 || h > 0){
return true;
}
return false;
};
console.log($('#myimage').isLoaded());
but if you hide the image ie gives 0 as width and height, so it fails for ie. For ie, you shouldnt hide the image.
I hope, somebody can combine both these features to make a cross browser thing or atleast it will help somebody for sure.
this[0].height and this[0].width instead (which are set to the image dimensions if the image is loaded)
