How to preview selected image in input type="file" in popup using jQuery? [duplicate]
In my code, I am allowing the user to upload an image. Now I want to show this selected image as a preview in this same popup. How can I do it using jQuery?
The following is the input type I am using in my popup window.
HTML code:
<input type="file" name="uploadNewImage">
Demo
HTML:
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<input type='file' id="imgInp" />
<img id="blah" src="#" alt="your image" />
</form>
jQuery
function readURL(input) {
if (input.files && input.files[0]) {
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onload = function (e) {
$('#blah').attr('src', e.target.result);
}
reader.readAsDataURL(input.files[0]);
}
}
$("#imgInp").change(function(){
readURL(this);
});
Reference
If your are using HTML5 then try following code snippet
<img id="uploadPreview" style="width: 100px; height: 100px;" />
<input id="uploadImage" type="file" name="myPhoto" onchange="PreviewImage();" />
<script type="text/javascript">
function PreviewImage() {
var oFReader = new FileReader();
oFReader.readAsDataURL(document.getElementById("uploadImage").files[0]);
oFReader.onload = function (oFREvent) {
document.getElementById("uploadPreview").src = oFREvent.target.result;
};
};
</script>
