Why isn't phaser.js able to load an image from a third-party domain?

I'm learning phaser.js, and I cant even load the image.
Here is the code:
// Need state. All game logic goes in state
var GameState = {
// Load all your images. Thats what the preload function is
preload : function(){
//Load Image
this.load.image( 'background', 'https://encrypted-tbn3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSMxwX5oTml7qBFmUD3vEIzEhqLQfakBVjmkQezA8HKs4KnT-2Q' );
},
//Execute after everything is loaded
create: function(){
//From top left param = (x,y)
this.background = this.game.add.sprite(0,0, 'background');
},
update: function(){
}
}
// New Game instance, 3rd parameter WEBGL or CANVAS automatic GL
var game = new Phaser.Game(640,360,Phaser.automatic);
// add state to game
// First just a name, second par is the actual Object
game.state.add('GameState', GameState);
game.state.start('GameState');
And here is the image that clearly shows that it doesen't load:

Your image isn't showing up because Phaser can't make use of cross-origin images, so all images need to be loaded from the same origin. In practice, this means that instead of loading the image directly from gstatic.com, you need to first download the image to your computer, then move it to your Phaser project folder and load it using a relative path.

Retrieving the absolute URL of a temporary canvas element on page

I created a coupon-creator system that uses HTML 5 canvas to spit out a jpg version of the coupon you create and since I'm not hosting the finalized jpg on a server, I am having trouble retrieving the URL. On some browsers when I drag the image into the address bar all I get is "data:" in the address bar. But on windows, if I drag it into an input field, sometimes it spits out the huge (>200 char) local-temp url. How can I use javascript(?) to find that exact temporary URL of the image generated by my coupon creator and be able to post it on an input form on the same page? Also, it'd be very helpful if you guys know the answer to this as well, as I assume it is correlated with the retrieval of the URL: When I click the link that says "Save it" after it's generated, how can I have it save the created image to the user's computer? Thanks a lot!
This is what I'm using in JS right now to generate the image:
function letsDo() {
html2canvas([document.getElementById('coupon')], {
onrendered: function (canvas) {
document.getElementById('canvas').appendChild(canvas);
var data = canvas.toDataURL('image/jpeg');
// AJAX call to send `data` to a PHP file that creates an image from the dataURI string and saves it to a directory on the server
var mycustomcoupon = new Image();
mycustomcoupon.src = data;
//Display the final product under this ID
document.getElementById('your_coupon').appendChild(mycustomcoupon);
document.getElementById('your_coupon_txt').style.display="block";
}
});
}
Here is the live URL of the creator: http://isleybear.com/coupon/

I ended up dumping this code into the js stated above. It was a pretty simple fix. Then to test it, I set an onclick html element to show the source.
var mycustomcoupon = document.getElementById('your_coupon');
mycustomcoupon.src = data;
}
});
}
function showSource(){
var source = document.getElementById('your_coupon').src;
alert(source);
}

How to store dynamic image at client side

First of all I am sorry if I am asking which was asked previously, But in fact I didn't get anything . I have some <Div> on my asp.net page. And using Javascript I am assigning background image from Url. Below is code
divFloor.style.backgroundImage = "url(Images/FloorPlan/" + hdnFloorImgSplit[1] + ")";
hdnFloorImgSplit is array contains the url of image. This is because I am using Azure cloud service.
When client refresh page or post back the page, The images are getting downloaded each time.
What I want is , I want to store it on client browser and used it from there if exists. This will save server and clients bandwidth and speed will increase dramatically.
Sorry but I am unable to find out the way. I have many images that I want to store and retried. Because of which my site is getting slow.
Any help appreciated

Blade , They have many different methods for do that . I show you one .With localstorage Json db.
You can use another method like Blob with XMLHttpRequest Level 2.
For more information about it , you can check this link
-> Saving images and filesin localStorage - javascript
Storing images ( you need store in first all your pictures with localStorage.SetItem ....)
The idea here is to be able to take an image that has been loaded into the current web page and store it into localStorage. As we established above, localStorage only supports strings, so what we need to do here is turn the image into a Data URL. One way to do this for an image, is to load into a canvas element. Then, with a canvas, you can read out the current visual representation in a canvas as a Data URL.
Let’s look at this example where we have an image in the document with an id of “elephant”:
// Get a reference to the image element
var elephant = document.getElementById("elephant");
// Take action when the image has loaded
elephant.addEventListener("load", function () {
var imgCanvas = document.createElement("canvas"),
imgContext = imgCanvas.getContext("2d");
// Make sure canvas is as big as the picture
imgCanvas.width = elephant.width;
imgCanvas.height = elephant.height;
// Draw image into canvas element
imgContext.drawImage(elephant, 0, 0, elephant.width, elephant.height);
// Get canvas contents as a data URL
var imgAsDataURL = imgCanvas.toDataURL("image/png");
// Save image into localStorage
try {
localStorage.setItem("elephant", imgAsDataURL);
}
catch (e) {
console.log("Storage failed: " + e);
}
}, false);
Then, if we want to take it further, we can utilize a JavaScript object and do a date check with localStorage. In this example, we load the image from the server through JavaScript the first time, but for every page load after that, we read the saved image from localStorage instead:
HTML
<figure>
<img id="elephant" src="about:blank" alt="A close up of an elephant">
<noscript>
<img src="elephant.png" alt="A close up of an elephant">
</noscript>
<figcaption>A mighty big elephant, and mighty close too!</figcaption>
</figure>
JAVASCRIPT
// localStorage with image
var storageFiles = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem("storageFiles")) || {},
elephant = document.getElementById("elephant"),
storageFilesDate = storageFiles.date,
date = new Date(),
todaysDate = (date.getMonth() + 1).toString() + date.getDate().toString();
// Compare date and create localStorage if it's not existing/too old
if (typeof storageFilesDate === "undefined" || storageFilesDate < todaysDate) {
// Take action when the image has loaded
elephant.addEventListener("load", function () {
var imgCanvas = document.createElement("canvas"),
imgContext = imgCanvas.getContext("2d");
// Make sure canvas is as big as the picture
imgCanvas.width = elephant.width;
imgCanvas.height = elephant.height;
// Draw image into canvas element
imgContext.drawImage(elephant, 0, 0, elephant.width, elephant.height);
// Save image as a data URL
storageFiles.elephant = imgCanvas.toDataURL("image/png");
// Set date for localStorage
storageFiles.date = todaysDate;
// Save as JSON in localStorage
try {
localStorage.setItem("storageFiles", JSON.stringify(storageFiles));
}
catch (e) {
console.log("Storage failed: " + e);
}
}, false);
// Set initial image src
elephant.setAttribute("src", "elephant.png");
}
else {
// Use image from localStorage
elephant.setAttribute("src", storageFiles.elephant);
}

fabric.js - toDataURL shows blank page when there is image on canvas

I'm using fabric.js for my canvas application, toDataURL method works properly except when there is a image on canvas. When i add an image to canvas and call toDataURL it shows me a blank page.
//When i call it from chrome console
canvas.toDataURL();
//It returns a working data url with no problem.
"data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAPAAAAGkCAYAAAAPPajHAAAgAElEQ…fpmwgogX1TrjoqP0FACewngtZh+iYCSmDflKuOyk8Q+H+CKCqUW0spTgAAAABJRU5ErkJggg=="
//When i execute same code in a .js file it returns a data url which shows a blank image.
"data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAPAAAAGkCAYAAAAPPajHAAAKC0lEQ…sBAmEBAw6XJzoBA/YDBMICBhwuT3QCBuwHCIQFDDhcnugEHt/IAaW9dzALAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC"
It's interesting that it's working on chrome dev console but not works in .js file even if it's same code. I noticed that working data url finishes with '==' but other one not. However i don't know what this means.

You didn't give much to analyze but I'll go from there on my gut feeling.
The image you are using is probably violating Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) requirements. When this happens the canvas will return a blank image when you try to get the pixel data either by using canvas.toDataURL() or context.getImageData().
It basically happens when the image is not located on the same domain as the page or is loaded from the file:// protocol.
You can try to add the following to the image object before setting the source:
image.crossOrigin = 'anonymous';
image.src = '...';
From tag:
<img crossOrigin='anonymous' src='...' alt='' />
This will request permission from the server to use the image cross-origin. If the server allows you should be fine.
If not you will either have to copy the image to your own server so it loads from the same domain as your page, or create a proxy page that loads the image externally and serves it to your page from the proxy page (it sounds complicated but really isn't).
If the image does not show up at all on the canvas you are probably not using load callback which you need since image loading is asynchronous. If so just add:
image.onload = function() {
/// now you can draw the image to canvas
}
image.crossOrigin = 'anonymous';
image.src = '...';

The problem is solved. The point i missed is, i was calling toDataURL function before canvas is loaded, that's why it was showing me a blank page.
canvas.loadFromJSON(json,function(){
var dataURL = canvas.toDataURL();
});
This solved my problem when i gave toDataURL() function as a callback to loadFromJSON function.
But after a while i had a different issue about CORS when i tried to upload my images from s3 bucket and i solved this problem as upward solution.

I was facing the same issues when I was trying to generate images from the canvas using Fabricsjs and generate PDF from images using JSPDF so below is my case I also spend hours on this may this can help someone to save time.
Load the canvas from JSON that i.e
canvas.loadFromJSON(json, canvas.renderAll.bind(canvas), function(obj, object) {
//fabric.log(obj, object);
});
Canvas was drawing images all fine then I was generating the images from that canvas it was a case of multiple images in a single canvas and I was generating PDF based on each page of the canvas.
Instead of this
canvas.toDataURL('image/png', 0.1)
I used this and it starts returning me the propper images dataurl
var imgData = document.getElementById('canvas_0').toDataURL();
Below are snippets
$("#pdfSelector .canvas-container").each(function(index, value){ // canvas selector
html2canvas($("#canvas_"+index), { // html2canvas used to get images
onrendered: function(canvas) { // on successfully render of images
//var imgData = canvas.toDataURL('image/png', 0.1);
var imgData = document.getElementById('canvas_0').toDataURL();
const imgProps= doc.getImageProperties(imgData);
const pdfWidth = doc.internal.pageSize.getWidth();
const pdfHeight = (imgProps.height * pdfWidth) / imgProps.width;
doc.addImage(imgData, 'PNG', 0, 0, pdfWidth, pdfHeight, 'page_'+index, 'FAST');
}
});
});

Changing image extension with javascript/jquery only?

I'm making a simple slider to show off artwork for a friend of mine. I'm really only familiar with javascript/jquery, so I'm not 100% comfortable using something else right now.
Since my friend doesn't have any programming knowledge, I'm trying to keep this really simple for her to update (i.e., automating creating new images whenever she adds a new one to the folder). She will upload images to a folder and will have to number them (i.e., 1.jpg, 2.jpg). My javascript uses a for loop to loop through numbers (she will have to update the loop whenever she adds a new image) and insert them into the file name. HOWEVER this limits her to only uploading one type of file. Is there someway to change the extension only using javascript?
This is what I have so far:
function callImages(){
//create the image div
$('.artslider').append('<div class="image"></div>');
//create the files array
var files = [];
//start the loop, starting position will have to be updated as images are added
for (i=8;i>=0;i--){
//create the img src for a jpg img
var imgJPG = 'arts/'+i+'.jpg';
//find the natural width of the image after it loads to see if it actually exists
var imgWidth = $('imgJPG').load().naturalWidth;
//if the width is undefined, replace the jpg extension with gif
if (imgWidth===undefined){
var imgGIF = imgJPG.replace('jpg', 'gif');
files[i] = '<img src="'+imgGIF+'" class="artsliderimg"/>';
}
//otherwise keep the jpg extension
else {
files[i] = '<img src="'+imgJPG+'" class="artsliderimg"/>';
}
//then add the images to the img div
$('.image').append(files[i]);
}
};
The problem with this if/else is that it will only create a gif image. If you switch the order, it will only create a jpg image.
edit: here's what this code produces: https://googledrive.com/host/0B1lNgklCWTGwV1N5cWNlNUJqMzg/index.html

The problem is with this bit of code:
var imgJPG = 'arts/'+i+'.jpg';
var imgWidth = $('imgJPG').load().naturalWidth;
imgWidth will always be undefined.
Firstly you are passing in the string 'imgJPG' instead of the parameter imgJPG. Secondly I think you have misunderstood jQuery selectors, this is used for selecting HTML elements, inputting a file path into here will not achieve anything. Thirdly I think you have misunderstood the load function, this is used for loading data from the server into a HTML element.
I would suggest using a function like below to check if the image exists:
function urlExists(url) {
var http = jQuery.ajax({
type:"HEAD",
url: url,
async: false
});
return http.status == 200;
}
Then in your code:
if (!urlExists(imgJPG)){
var imgGIF = imgJPG.replace('jpg', 'gif');
files[i] = '<img src="'+imgGIF+'" class="artsliderimg"/>';
}
else {
files[i] = '<img src="'+imgJPG+'" class="artsliderimg"/>';
}
