Is bubbling available for image load events?

Can I use:

window.addEventListner();

in some way.

All my images have a display = 'none'.

Once the image has loaded,

I want to set display = 'inline'

This way I can normalize what is displayed while the image is being downloaded.

In this case, I can not pre-load my images.

Solution

  • The load/onload event does not bubble (reference, reference), so what you're asking for is not possible. You'll have to attach an event handler to each image node, or intercept the event during the capture phase, as suggested in other answers.
