HI All,

 

I have a requirement here wherein I have to upload a image preferably JPEG and Preview it to the users.I know there are some ways of doing it like uploading the image and storing it in the server via ajax or server side programs and then bringing it back to the user for preview. But I do not want to go that way,

 

I was thinking it is possible that user upload the image, JS somehow stores the image data in the variable  in the runtime and then displays it in the predefined area to the user and once he is satisfed with image, then maybe he can save it to the server.

 

I would be helpfull if you can suggest some solutions to this as i have been doing a research for sometime now and all I can see is there are plugins some with jquery and some with other librarires , all those has one thing in common, they make calls to server side programs to store the image somewhere.I dont want to make any calls ,just the user needs to select the image and then click the preview button ,see the image in predefined area and once satisfied then make the server call.

 

I faintly remember this was the process during IE5/6 era though cannot recollect precisely.Is this possible now ?
