This tutorial will guide you through creating a Javascript on click Fullscreen Image solution. This is useful for enhancing user experience by allowing users to view images in a larger, more detailed format with a simple click, improving accessibility and visual appeal.
Setting Up the HTML Structure
First, you need to structure your HTML. This structure will contain the images that you want to display in fullscreen mode. You can customize image attributes.
<link href='https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Ubuntu+Mono:400,700' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
<header>
<div class="main">
<h1> A js library for viewing images in a fully full screen. </h1>
<h1> Click the images to see it in action!</h1>
</div>
</header>
<section class="demos">
<!-- Using divs for the demo, for formatting... you can use images if you want! -->
<div class="demo-image first" data-image="http://tholman.com/intense-images/img/h1_small.jpg" data-title="Beautiful fields" data-caption="With lots of wheaty puffs. Love those puffs."></div>
<div class="demo-image second" data-image="http://tholman.com/intense-images/img/v1_small.jpg" data-title="Fantastic cliffs" data-caption="Longing for exploration. Explore me!"></div>
</section>
<footer>
<h1> <a href="http://tholman.com" target="_blank">
By Tim Holman</a> •
<a href="https://github.com/tholman/intense-images" target="_blank">Source & Instructions</a>
</h1>
</footer>
<script>
window.onload = function() {
var elements = document.querySelectorAll( '.demo-image' );
Intense( elements );
}
</script>
<script src="./script.js"></script>
Applying CSS Styles
Now, add the following CSS to style your page and the image elements. These styles control the layout, appearance, and cursor effects.
* {
-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
box-sizing: border-box; }
html, body {
font-family: "Ubuntu Mono", monospace;
margin: 0px;
height: 100%;
width: 100%; }
body {
padding: 20px;
padding-top: 40px;
min-width: 600px; }
header h1, footer h1 {
font-weight: normal;
width: 464px;
background: #222222;
color: #fff;
font-size: 14px;
height: 55px;
line-height: 55px;
margin: auto;
margin-top: 0px;
margin-bottom: 20px;
text-align: center;}
.demos {
text-align: center;
margin-top: 20px;
width: 490px;
margin: auto;}
.demo-image {
cursor: url("http://tholman.com/intense-images/img/plus_cursor.png") 25 25, auto;
display: inline-block;
width: 220px;
height: 220px;
background-size: cover;
background-position: 50% 50%;
margin-left: 8px;
margin-right: 8px;
margin-bottom: 16px; }
.demo-image.first {
background-image: url("http://tholman.com/intense-images/img/h1_small.jpg"); }
.demo-image.second {
background-position: 50% 10%;
background-image: url("http://tholman.com/intense-images/img/v1_small.jpg"); }
footer h1 {
padding-left: 20px;
background: #e9e9e9;
color: #222222;
font-size: 14px; }
footer h1 a {
color: #222222; }
Implementing the JavaScript Functionality
In this step, we’ll add the JavaScript code that handles the onclick event and displays the image in fullscreen mode. This code includes functions for creating the viewer, handling events, and managing image positioning.
window.requestAnimFrame = (function(){
return window.requestAnimationFrame ||
window.webkitRequestAnimationFrame ||
window.mozRequestAnimationFrame ||
function( callback ){
window.setTimeout(callback, 1000 / 60);
};
})();
window.cancelRequestAnimFrame = ( function() {
return window.cancelAnimationFrame ||
window.webkitCancelRequestAnimationFrame ||
window.mozCancelRequestAnimationFrame ||
window.oCancelRequestAnimationFrame ||
window.msCancelRequestAnimationFrame ||
clearTimeout
} )();
var Intense = (function() {
'use strict';
var KEYCODE_ESC = 27;
// Track both the current and destination mouse coordinates
// Destination coordinates are non-eased actual mouse coordinates
var mouse = { xCurr:0, yCurr:0, xDest: 0, yDest: 0 };
var horizontalOrientation = true;
// Holds the animation frame id.
var looper;
// Current position of scrolly element
var lastPosition, currentPosition = 0;
var sourceDimensions, target;
var targetDimensions = { w: 0, h: 0 };
var container;
var containerDimensions = { w: 0, h:0 };
var overflowArea = { x: 0, y: 0 };
// Overflow variable before screen is locked.
var overflowValue;
/* -------------------------
/* UTILS
/* -------------------------*/
// Soft object augmentation
function extend( target, source ) {
for ( var key in source )
if ( !( key in target ) )
target[ key ] = source[ key ];
return target;
}
// Applys a dict of css properties to an element
function applyProperties( target, properties ) {
for( var key in properties ) {
target.style[ key ] = properties[ key ];
}
}
// Returns whether target a vertical or horizontal fit in the page.
// As well as the right fitting width/height of the image.
function getFit(
source ) {
var heightRatio = window.innerHeight / source.h;
if( (source.w * heightRatio) > window.innerWidth ) {
return { w: source.w * heightRatio, h: source.h * heightRatio, fit: true };
} else {
var widthRatio = window.innerWidth / source.w;
return { w: source.w * widthRatio, h: source.h * widthRatio, fit: false };
}
}
/* -------------------------
/* APP
/* -------------------------*/
function startTracking( passedElements ) {
var i;
// If passed an array of elements, assign tracking to all.
if ( passedElements.length ) {
// Loop and assign
for( i = 0; i < passedElements.length; i++ ) {
track( passedElements[ i ] );
}
} else {
track( passedElements );
}
}
function track( element ) {
// Element needs a src at minumun.
if( element.getAttribute( 'data-image') || element.src ) {
element.addEventListener( 'click', function() {
init( this );
}, false );
}
}
function start() {
loop();
}
function stop() {
cancelRequestAnimFrame( looper );
}
function loop() {
looper = requestAnimFrame(loop);
positionTarget();
}
// Lock scroll on the document body.
function lockBody() {
overflowValue = document.body.style.overflow;
document.body.style.overflow = 'hidden';
}
// Unlock scroll on the document body.
function unlockBody() {
document.body.style.overflow = overflowValue;
}
function createViewer( title, caption ) {
