My images however are not in the range of your filesize BUT in iOS 5.1 my sliding images in a swipe gallery work fine in browser but in IOS I could only describe Apples logic as <br /><br />"This image off the side on the screen is not visible so i'm not going to put those pixels into memory yet, when you bring it across i will load it finally then."<br /><br />So even with it loaded its not truelly fully loaded until first use, as a result what i get is almost a catch up loading feeling where the image reveals the final third of the image in large buckets/blocks.<br /><br />My issue now is the client "NEEDS" it to be swipey "like the native". I now wish i'd just gone native, not something i expected to run into issues with...Kevinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00480231738253700293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5538836060823517969.post-33828745825426746202010-10-06T17:45:16.537-07:002010-10-06T17:45:16.537-07:00Very interesting solution.

I need to know the dimensions of an image from the Camera or Photo Library, which are base64 data strings. Standard jQuery in a .load function does fine on the iPhone, but all I get are 0 width and height on the iPad. Any ideas for me? (I don't expect an answer, but this problem is preventing me from submitting a finished iPhone app, since now they have to run on the iPad.)Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10139060376096144112noreply@blogger.com
