Flexible and lazy loading squeeze page templates

Chrome and Firefox both support lazy loading with the loading attribute. This attribute can be added to elements, and also to elements. A value of lazy tells the browser to load the image immediately if it is in the viewport, and to fetch other images when the user scrolls near them.

For example, if a web page has an image that the user has to scroll down to see, you can display a placeholder and lazy load the full image only when the user arrives to its location.

Here are the steps involved: first we are going to overrule the background-image style property for all elements that have a background image. Once the DOM content has been loaded we are going to remove this override again. By that time the non-background images will be queued for download.

With browser lazy loading, you only need to add a loading attribute with a value of lazy to the img tag in the HTML markup. Put simply, all you need to do is tell the browser which images to lazy load. No JavaScript, APIs, or calculations required.

Implementing lazy loading Modern browsers implement browser-level lazy loading, which can be enabled using the loading attribute on images and iframes. To provide compatibility with older browsers or to perform lazy loading on elements without built-in lazy loading you can implement a solution with your own JavaScript.

Background images in HTML can be added using the background-image property in CSS, internal style sheet, or the background attribute in HTML. By default, images are added to the background from the left and are repeated to fill the screen unless specified not to.

Simple Lazy Loading It involves adding a single attribute to the image tag. By setting the loading attribute to lazy, you enable lazy loading for that particular image. The browser then takes care of determining the optimal time to download the image based on its proximity to the visible part of the screen.
