I am trying to save a image/screenshot through paste Ctrl+V into a div #pasteImageDiv by user. Its working fine with Chrome but not working with IE.
I am using IE10.
Until now, what I have been able to find is that if I paste any text to div #pasteImageDiv, it catch the onpaste event properly, even in IE.
But if I paste an image instead of text, it even doesn't catch onpaste (IE doesn't even enter into the function that handles the onpaste event).
document.getElementById('pasteImageDiv').onpaste = function (event) {It is working well in Chrome whether I paste a text string or an image. I hope you understand what kind of issue I am facing. Still, if any additional information is needed, please let me know.
$('#pasteImageHere, #pasteImageDiv').click(function(e){ //on paste image button click
e.preventDefault();
$('#hideOnPaste').hide();
//document.getElementById('pasteImageDiv').click();
document.getElementById('pasteImageDiv').style.backgroundColor = "#F1F1F1";
document.getElementById('pasteImageDiv').onpaste = function (event) {
$('#hideOnPaste').hide();
//console.log(event.clipboardData.getData('image/png'));
// use event.originalEvent.clipboard for newer chrome versions
var items = (event.clipboardData || event.originalEvent.clipboardData).items;
console.log(JSON.stringify(items)); // will give you the mime types
// find pasted image among pasted items
var blob = null;
for (var i = 0; i < items.length; i++) {
if (items[i].type.indexOf("image") === 0) {
blob = items[i].getAsFile();
}
}
// load image if there is a pasted image
if (blob !== null) {
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onload = function(event) {
console.log(event.target.result); // data url!
var elem = document.createElement("img");
elem.setAttribute("id", "pastedImage");
elem.setAttribute("height", "200");
elem.setAttribute("width", "300");
document.getElementById("pasteImageDiv").appendChild(elem);
document.getElementById("pastedImage").src = event.target.result;
document.getElementById('inputImageData').value = event.target.result;
console.log($('#inputImageData').val());
$('#pastedImage').css('width', '300px');
$('#pastedImage').css('height', '200px');
document.getElementById("pastedImage").style.height = '200px';
};
reader.readAsDataURL(blob);
$('#removePastedImage').show();
}
}
});
