Use cross-origin img attribute instead of data URI
After lots of experimenting with Wireshark and
current Chrome + Firefox on Ubuntu 13.10, this is my
current understanding of the caching when preloading images
with AJAX requests:
* on Chrome, the image request always comes from browser cache
* Firefox makes two separate requests by default
* Firefox with img.crossOrigin = 'anonymous' makes two separate
requests, but the second one is a 304 (does not load the
image twice)
* when the image has already been cached by the browser (but not in
this session), Chrome skips both requests; Firefox skips the AJAX
request, but sends the normal one, and it returns with 304.
"wish I knew this when I started" things:
* the Chrome DevTools has an option to disable cache. When this is
enabled, requests in the same document context still come from
cache (so if I load the page, fire an AJAX request, then without
reloading the page, fire an AJAX request to the same URL, then the
second request will be cached), but an AJAX request - image request
pair is an exception from this.
* when using Ctrl-F5 in Firefox, requests on that page will never hit
the cache (even AJAX request fired after user activity; even if
two identical requests follow each other). When using clear cache
+ normal reload, this is not the case.
* if the image does not have an Allow-Origin header and is loaded
with crossOrigin=true, Firefox will refuse to load it. Chrome will
log an error in the console saying it refused to load it, but will
actually load it.
* Wireshark rocks.

* if the image does not have an Allow-Origin header and is loaded
with crossOrigin=true, Firefox will refuse to load it. Chrome will
log an error in the console saying it refused to load it, but will
actually load it.

/**
|
Use cross-origin img attribute instead of data URI
After lots of experimenting with Wireshark and
current Chrome + Firefox on Ubuntu 13.10, this is my
current understanding of the caching when preloading images
with AJAX requests:
* on Chrome, the image request always comes from browser cache
* Firefox makes two separate requests by default
* Firefox with img.crossOrigin = 'anonymous' makes two separate
requests, but the second one is a 304 (does not load the
image twice)
* when the image has already been cached by the browser (but not in
this session), Chrome skips both requests; Firefox skips the AJAX
request, but sends the normal one, and it returns with 304.
"wish I knew this when I started" things:
* the Chrome DevTools has an option to disable cache. When this is
enabled, requests in the same document context still come from
cache (so if I load the page, fire an AJAX request, then without
reloading the page, fire an AJAX request to the same URL, then the
second request will be cached), but an AJAX request - image request
pair is an exception from this.
* when using Ctrl-F5 in Firefox, requests on that page will never hit
the cache (even AJAX request fired after user activity; even if
two identical requests follow each other). When using clear cache
+ normal reload, this is not the case.
* if the image does not have an Allow-Origin header and is loaded
with crossOrigin=true, Firefox will refuse to load it. Chrome will
log an error in the console saying it refused to load it, but will
actually load it.
* Wireshark rocks.

|
|
|
* This means that:
|
|
|
|
* - the browser supports CORS requests (large wiki farms usually host images on a
|
|
|
|
* separate domain) and
|
|
|
|
* - either AJAX and normal image loading uses the same cache (when an image is used by a CORS
|
|
|
|
* request, and then normally by setting img.src, it is only loaded once)
|
|
|
|
* - or (as is the case with Firefox) they are cached separately, but that can be changed by
|
|
|
|
* setting the crossOrigin attribute
