Hi and thanks! Please, one more question: What would the code look like if I’d only want to refresh the very SAME image, and ONLY from the browser cache — i.e. make sure that it is not re-loaded from the server?

(I’d need this in order to re-start an animated gif at frame #1)

I have struggled against the issue for whole day, thanks for your pretty simple resolution.

Jquery version

$.fn.reloadSrc = function(){
var $this = $(this);
var src = $this.attr(“src”);
if(src != undefined){
$this.attr(“src”, src + (src.indexOf(‘?’) >= 0 ? “&” : “?”) + “tq=” + (new Date()).getTime());
}
}

Nice hint, though very verbose code.

Optimized version:

document.getElementById(id).src = document.getElementById(id).src.split(‘?’)[0]+’?'+(new Date().getTime());

(The v= isn’t necessary as the parameter is not used anyway)

@the JQuery fanboy – without Javascript there would be no JQuery.
