:image Selector


image selector

Description: Selects all elements of type image.

  • version added: 1.0jQuery( ":image" )

:image is equivalent to [type="image"]

Additional Notes:

  • Because :image is a jQuery extension and not part of the CSS specification, queries using :image cannot take advantage of the performance boost provided by the native DOM querySelectorAll() method. For better performance in modern browsers, use [type="image"] instead.

Example:

Finds all image inputs.
