This function loops through all images on the page, and serves the appropriately sized image file from a list in a data attribute.
example link: http://total.maloweb.com/responsive
example html:
<img src="default.png" data-widths="400,600,800,1023" data-srcsuffix="-foo.png">
example javascript:
onload=onresize=function(){
respImg("data-widths","data-srcsuffix")
}
example filenames:
400-foo.png
600-foo.png
800-foo.png
1023-foo.png

@atk the latest two don't work as well...
I'll have to copy your test page so I could test myself...
Can you drop the prefix and simply use "default.png", "400-default.png" and so on as filenames?
@maettig
Sure?
Just a suggestion. I don't know if this is what you want. Simply write <img src="default.png" data-widths="400,600,800,1023"> and use a.src=e+'-'+a.src instead of a.src=e+a.getAttribute(y).
@maettig
Thats a brilliant idea! I'll implement it when I have the time!
Edit:
I just remembered why I didn't do this.
The browser loads the default automatically.
So to prevent loading a useless image, you have to either put no src attribute, or make the src a data url of a one pixel gif or something.
My idea 136 bytes: (posted from my phone, not tested)
function respImg(s,u,d,l){document.images.map(a=>{d=a.dataset,for(l=d[s].split(',');l.length||a.offsetWidth>w=l.shift();)a.src=w+d[u]})}
Currently, I am trying to get rid of split, because it's too long. Not sure if this will work, but it goes around the lines of:
