How to check if image exists with given url?

Viewed 137887

I want to check if an image exists using jquery.

For example how do I check this image exists

http://www.google.com/images/srpr/nav_logo14.png 

the check must give me a 200 or status ok

--------------edited-------------------

var imgsrc = $(this).attr('src');
var imgcheck = imgsrc.width;


if (imgcheck==0) {
alert("You have a zero size image");
} else { //do rest of code }

Thanks Jean

jQuery 3.0 removed .error. Correct syntax is now

$(this).on('error', function(){
    console.log('Image does not exist: ' + this.id); 
});

To handle the lazy loading with image existence check I followed this in jQuery-

$('[data-src]').each(function() {
  var $image_place_holder_element = $(this);
  var image_url = $(this).data('src');
  $("<div class='hidden-classe' />").load(image_url, function(response, status, xhr) {
    if (!(status == "error")) {
      $image_place_holder_element.removeClass('image-placeholder');
      $image_place_holder_element.attr('src', image_url);
    }
  }).remove();
});

Reason: if I am using $image_place_holder_element.load() method it will be adding the response to the element, so random div and removing it appeared me a good solution. Hope it works for someone trying to implement lazy loading along with url check.
