https://npmcdn.com/jquery-gray@1.7.0/js/jquery.gray.min.js
Or you can just download it.
How to Use
1. Add the CSS from gray.css.
If you want to use your own CSS selector instead of .grayscale, edit or copy the CSS.
2. Add the plugin after jQuery at the bottom of the body.
`html`
The plugin automatically initializes for all elements with a class of grayscale.
The plugin can also be called manually with:
`javascript`
$('.my-grayscale-class').gray();
The effect can be toggled with the grayscale-off class:
`javascript`
$('.grayscale').toggleClass('grayscale-off');
3. Add your image with a class of grayscale.
`html`
Images with CSS background-image, background-size and (numeric) background-position are also supported:
`html
background-image : url(/img/color-sprite-lg.jpg);
background-size : auto 72px;
background-position: -180px 0;
display : inline-block;
width : 180px;
height : 72px;
"
class="grayscale"
>
`
Non-numeric background-size (cover, contain, ...) and background-position (center, ...) are not currently supported (pull requests welcome!).
4. (Optional) Add class of
if you want transitioning from grayscale back to color on hover
`html
`5. If you are using Modernizr already, make sure that the required feature detects are included in your build.
6. Revel in your absolute and utter awesomeness.
Caveats
$3
Non-numeric background-size (
, contain, ...) and background-position (center, ...) are not currently supported.$3
Percentage-based background-position (ex.
50% 50%, ...) is not currently supported.$3
Calling the plugin on hidden images (or other images that cannot have their size calculated) will fail in polyfill browsers. Workarounds can be found in the discussions at #57 and #40.
$3
Target elements with child elements will have those child elements removed in browsers without support for CSS filters. #61
$3
Target elements with event listeners removed in browsers without support for CSS filters. #65
$3
Colored borders will be also converted to grayscale in non-polyfill browsers. To also convert to grayscale in polyfill browsers, the class
grayscale-replaced can be used:`css
.grayscale-replaced {
border-color: #494949 !important;
}
`How it Works
In browsers that support css filters, the styles in
will use CSS filters to turn the image gray.$3
The
jquery.gray plugin uses the Modernizr._prefixes, css-filters, Inline SVG and svg-filters feature detects from Modernizr to determine browser support. If a browser supports inline SVG and SVG filters but not CSS filters, the plugin replaces the elements with SVG elements with filters.Changelog
