:image Selector

image selector

Description: Selects all elements of type image.

  • version added: 1.0jQuery( ":image" )

:image is equivalent to [type="image"]

Additional Notes:

  • Because :image is a jQuery extension and not part of the CSS specification, queries using :image cannot take advantage of the performance boost provided by the native DOM querySelectorAll() method. For better performance in modern browsers, use [type="image"] instead.

Example:

Finds all image inputs.

<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">
  <title>image demo</title>
  <style>
  textarea {
    height: 45px;
  }
  </style>
  <script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
 
<form>
  <input type="button" value="Input Button">
  <input type="checkbox">
  <input type="file">
  <input type="hidden">
  <input type="image">
  <input type="password">
  <input type="radio">
  <input type="reset">
  <input type="submit">
  <input type="text">
  <select>
    <option>Option</option>
  </select>
  <textarea></textarea>
  <button>Button</button>
</form>
<div></div>
 
<script>
var input = $( "input:image" ).css({
  background:"yellow",
  border:"3px red solid"
});
$( "div" )
  .text( "For this type jQuery found " + input.length + "." )
  .css( "color", "red" );
$( "form" ).submit(function( event ) {
  event.preventDefault();
});
</script>
 
</body>
</html>
