Easy To Use Image Placeholder jQuery Plugin

Posted · Category: Tools

Holder is a client-side image placeholder library that uses <canvas> and the data URI scheme to render placeholders entirely in browser. It works both online and offline, and offers a chainable API to style and create placeholders with ease.

Holder also includes support for themes, to help placeholders blend in with your layout. Themes have 3 properties: foreground, background, and size. The size property specifies the minimum font size for the theme. It has been tested on Chrome 1+, Firefox 3+, Safari 4+, Internet Explorer 9+, with fallback for IE6-8 and Android 1+.
