I'm working on the gallery now of my website and one idea I had is that before you upload you image it's displayed on the page. I'll be using the file type form input. So I'm wondering, if through JS or something, with out reloading the page or uploading to my server, is there a way so the user can see the image before they upload?

 

Thanks

..... you want to show them the image they're uploading from their own computer that they've just selected to upload?  And the point in doing that would be... ?

 

I think there is probably a JS library to do it, but I still don't see the point.

Well if you have 5 images that you are going upload you may forget what is what. There are 2 input fields for the user, the Image then a Description for the Image. People can better describe something when looking at it, so if they browse for an image they wish to upload, it's displayed on the web page for them to describe.

 

I understand that not every one would need this, but for those who would it's all ready there for them. There have been times where I wish some web sites had this.

This thread is more than a year old. Please don't revive it unless you have something important to add.
