Since then, I have just set the default images on this blog to <code>display: none</code> and render them as <code>block</code> elements when their specific <code>section</code> is loaded into the DOM visibly.</p> + <p>The example below is remaining the same as it was, to still provide context for this post.</p> -<h2>Live Demo</h2> -<p>Before we jump head first into the details, let's take a look at what we will be creating:</p> -<p><figure> - <div class="img-parent"> - <img loading="lazy" src="/placeholder-image.webp" onclick="this.src='/public/images/aqua-ui-css-buttons.webp'" alt="Aqua UI buttons"> - </div> - <figcaption><b>Click the placeholder to load in the real image</b><br>Example Dribbble shot for testing.

By default all images will target the default placeholder image: <code>placeholder-image.webp</code>. This image is just 16KB in size and only needs to load in once.</p> -<p>Next we include an inline <code>onclick</code> attribute, which targets the current image's <code>src</code> attribute and changes it based on the URL provided.

By including a direct link to the image URL in the <code>figcaption</code> element, we give the user the ability to still view the image in a separate browser tab.</p> + <p>You could get extra fancy and include some <code>noscript</code> tags in your project that maybe render a different placeholder image mentioning they have JavaScript disabled etc, but for my needs that would be overkill.</p> -<h2>Cool - But Why Do This?</h2> -<p>Bandwidth is a limited resource for a lot of users around the world.
