these functions will solve the problem, you need to implement the DrawThumbnails function and have a global variable to store the images. I love to get this to work with a class object that has the ThumbnailImageArray as a member variable, but am struggling!
called as in addThumbnailImages(10);
var ThumbnailImageArray = [];
function addThumbnailImages(MaxNumberOfImages)
{
var imgs = [];
for (var i=1; i<MaxNumberOfImages; i++)
{
imgs.push(i+".jpeg");
}
preloadimages(imgs).done(function (images){
var c=0;
for(var i=0; i<images.length; i++)
{
if(images[i].width >0)
{
if(c != i)
images[c] = images[i];
c++;
}
}
images.length = c;
DrawThumbnails();
});
}
function preloadimages(arr)
{
var loadedimages=0
var postaction=function(){}
var arr=(typeof arr!="object")? [arr] : arr
function imageloadpost()
{
loadedimages++;
if (loadedimages==arr.length)
{
postaction(ThumbnailImageArray); //call postaction and pass in newimages array as parameter
}
};
for (var i=0; i<arr.length; i++)
{
ThumbnailImageArray[i]=new Image();
ThumbnailImageArray[i].src=arr[i];
ThumbnailImageArray[i].onload=function(){ imageloadpost();};
ThumbnailImageArray[i].onerror=function(){ imageloadpost();};
}
//return blank object with done() method
//remember user defined callback functions to be called when images load
return { done:function(f){ postaction=f || postaction } };
}
