jQuery event for images loaded

Is it possible to detect when all images are loaded via a jQuery event?

Ideally, there should be a 

$(document).idle(function()
{
}

or

$(document).contentLoaded(function()
{
}

But I can't find such a thing.

I thought of attaching an event like this:

$(document).ready(function()
{
    var imageTotal = $('img').length;
    var imageCount = 0;        
    $('img').load(function(){if(++imageCount == imageTotal) doStuff();});
}

But will this break if an image fails to load? It's critically important for the method to be called, and at the right time.

Per jQuery's documentation, there are a number of caveats for using the load event with images. As noted in another answer, the ahpi.imgload.js plugin is broken, but the linked Paul Irish gist is no longer maintained.

Per Paul Irish, the canonical plugin for detecting image load complete events is now at:

If you want to check for not all images, but a specific one (eg. an image that you replaced dynamically after DOM is already complete) you can use this:

$('#myImage').attr('src', 'image.jpg').on("load", function() {  
  alert('Image Loaded');  
});

imagesLoaded Plugin is way to go ,if you need a crossbrowser solution

 $("<img>", {src: 'image.jpg'}).imagesLoaded( function( $images, $proper, $broken ){
 if($broken.length > 0){
 //Error CallBack
 console.log('Error');
 }
 else{
 // Load CallBack
 console.log('Load');
 }
 });

If You Just Need a IE WorkAround,This Will Do

 var img = $("<img>", {
    error: function() {console.log('error'); },
    load: function() {console.log('load');}
    });
  img.attr('src','image.jpg');
