Simple jQuery extension for dynamically loading images while scrolling. Intended for image-heavy websites to save bandwidth and decrease intial load time.
Include the latest version of jQuery and jQuery.loadScroll.js
in the <head>
of your HTML document:
<script src="jQuery.min.js"></script>
<script src="jQuery.loadScroll.js"></script>
Reference the loadScroll()
method and use the data-src
attribute for all dynamic loading images. The data-src
changes to the standard src
attribute as the image(s) enter the viewport. Placeholder images are optional. See the live demo: code.nath.co/loadScroll
