<img alt="Graphic will preview here" id="previewField" src="http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a345/Instar/eye_search_e0.gif">
</div></body>Your example is an HTML5 Feature and will only work on Firefox2.5 and Chrome5. Hoping the function getAsDataURL() will come more popular in the next time!
Other solution with more compatibility are client side java applets or activeX ...
Yeah, it works when the file is saved with .html extension, but doesnt work when the file is converted and saved with .php extension. Please will like help when the file is saved as .php extension.
On the other side, please i will need help....When the image preview on the front-end, i will like to save the image with other form elements and stored in MySQL database. How can i achieve this. Thanks
Thank you very much .
