I have created a webpage that basically displays 2 images side by side.
It has a "download" button, which triggers a vanilla Javascript function, which creates a HTML element and concatenates the two images inside of it. It then creates a link with the base64-encoded result image as
href
and clicks on it:
Here is what the function I'm using looks like:
/**
* Create canvas, draw both images in it, create a link with the result
* image in base64 in the "href" field, append the link to the document,
* and click on it
*/
function saveImage() {
// Get left image
var imgLeft = new Image();
imgLeft.setAttribute('crossOrigin', 'anonymous');
imgLeft.src = "imgleft/" + idxImageShownLeft + ".jpg";
imgLeft.onload = function() {
// Once the left image is ready, get right image
var imgRight = new Image()
imgRight.setAttribute('crossOrigin', 'anonymous');
imgRight.src = "imgright/" + idxImageShownRight + ".jpg";
imgRight.onload = function() {
// Once the right image is ready, create the canvas
var canv = document.createElement("canvas");
var widthLeft = parseInt(imgLeft.width);
var widthRight = parseInt(imgRight.width);
var width = widthLeft + widthRight;
var height = imgLeft.height;
canv.setAttribute("width", width);
canv.setAttribute("height", height);
canv.setAttribute("id", "myCanvas");
canv.setAttribute('crossOrigin', 'anonymous');
var ctx = canv.getContext("2d");
// Draw both images in canvas
ctx.drawImage(imgLeft, 0, 0);
ctx.drawImage(imgRight, widthLeft, 0);
// Create PNG image out of the canvas
var img = canv.toDataURL("image/png");
// Create link element
var aHref = document.createElement('a');
aHref.href = img;
aHref.setAttribute("id", "dllink");
aHref.download = "image.png";
// Append link to document
var renderDiv = document.getElementById("render");
renderDiv.replaceChild(aHref, document.getElementById("dllink"));
// Click on link
aHref.click();
}
}
}
My problem is that this works fine on Firefox, but not on Chrome.
After a bit of investigating, I realized that by setting a breakpoint before the aHref.click();
line in Chrome, it worked fine. I think that it means that the aHref.click();
is called before the
