Create an Image Comparison Slider
Step 1: Create index.html file and implement below code in it.
<div class="img-comp-container">
<div class="img-comp-img">
<img src="../image/demo1.jpg" width="300" height="200">
</div>
<div class="img-comp-img img-comp-overlay">
<img src="../image/demo2.jpg" width="300" height="200">
</div>
</div>
<style>
h1 {
color: red;
}
* {box-sizing: border-box;}
.img-comp-container {
position: relative;
height: 200px; /*should be the same height as the images*/
}
.img-comp-img {
position: absolute;
width: auto;
height: auto;
overflow:hidden;
}
.img-comp-img img {
display:block;
vertical-align:middle;
}
.img-comp-slider {
position: absolute;
z-index:9;
cursor: ew-resize;
/*set the appearance of the slider:*/
width: 40px;
height: 40px;
background-color: #2196F3;
opacity: 0.7;
border-radius: 50%;
}
</style>
Step 3:Now we implement javascript to move slider button.
<script>
function initComparisons() {
var x, i;
/*find all elements with an "overlay" class:*/
x = document.getElementsByClassName("img-comp-overlay");
for (i = 0; i < x.length; i++) {
/*once for each "overlay" element:
pass the "overlay" element as a parameter when executing the compareImages function:*/
compareImages(x[i]);
}
function compareImages(img) {
var slider, img, clicked = 0, w, h;
/*get the width and height of the img element*/
w = img.offsetWidth;
h = img.offsetHeight;
/*set the width of the img element to 50%:*/
img.style.width = (w / 2) + "px";
/*create slider:*/
slider = document.createElement("DIV");
slider.setAttribute("class", "img-comp-slider");
/*insert slider*/
img.parentElement.insertBefore(slider, img);
/*position the slider in the middle:*/
slider.style.top = (h / 2) - (slider.offsetHeight / 2) + "px";
slider.style.left = (w / 2) - (slider.offsetWidth / 2) + "px";
/*execute a function when the mouse button is pressed:*/
slider.addEventListener("mousedown", slideReady);
/*and another function when the mouse button is released:*/
window.addEventListener("mouseup", slideFinish);
/*or touched (for touch screens:*/
slider.addEventListener("touchstart", slideReady);
/*and released (for touch screens:*/
window.addEventListener("touchend", slideFinish);
function slideReady(e) {
/*prevent any other actions that may occur when moving over the image:*/
e.preventDefault();
/*the slider is now clicked and ready to move:*/
clicked = 1;
/*execute a function when the slider is moved:*/
window.addEventListener("mousemove", slideMove);
window.addEventListener("touchmove", slideMove);
}
function slideFinish() {
/*the slider is no longer clicked:*/
clicked = 0;
}
function slideMove(e) {
var pos;
/*if the slider is no longer clicked, exit this function:*/
if (clicked == 0) return false;
/*get the cursor's x position:*/
pos = getCursorPos(e)
/*prevent the slider from being positioned outside the image:*/
if (pos < 0) pos = 0;
if (pos > w) pos = w;
/*execute a function that will resize the overlay image according to the cursor:*/
slide(pos);
}
function getCursorPos(e) {
var a, x = 0;
e = e || window.event;
/*get the x positions of the image:*/
a = img.getBoundingClientRect();
/*calculate the cursor's x coordinate, relative to the image:*/
x = e.pageX - a.left;
/*consider any page scrolling:*/
x = x - window.pageXOffset;
return x;
}
function slide(x) {
/*resize the image:*/
img.style.width = x + "px";
/*position the slider:*/
slider.style.left = img.offsetWidth - (slider.offsetWidth / 2) + "px";
}
}
}
</script>
Step 3:Now we implement javascript to execute.
<script>
/*Execute a function that will execute an image compare function for each element with the img-comp-overlay class:*/
initComparisons();
</script>
