onerror Event error Javascript DOM Tutorial Share / Like
The error event fires when a target resource(image or object) fails to load, or has been loaded but cannot be interpreted.
Scripting error events through Javascript and the DOM:
Javascript CODE EXAMPLE
<img id="img1" src="anyImage.jpg">
<script type="text/javascript">
var img1 = document.getElementById('img1');
img1.onerror = errorHandler;
function errorHandler(){
alert(this.id+" did not load correctly.");
}
</script>
Scripting error events direct on the html elements:
Javascript CODE EXAMPLE
<script type="text/javascript">
function errorHandler(target){
alert(target.id+" did not load correctly.");
}
</script>
<img id="img1" onerror="errorHandler(this);" src="anyImage.jpg">
