Im having trouble obtaining the width and height of an image during the upload function.

Here's the current code I have:

// internal function that creates an input element
var file=newElement("input",0,"");

// sets the input element as type file
file.type="file";
file.multiple="multiple";
file.name="photoupload[]";
file.accept="image/*";

file.onchange=function(e){
  // internal function that creates an image element
  var img=newElement("img",0,"");
  img.src=URL.createObjectURL(this);
  img.onload=function(){
   var cw=img.clientWidth;
   var ch=img.clientHeight;
   alert(cw);alert(ch);
  }
}
file.click();

Not quite sure how to fix this. Any help appreciated.

Swap the onload to before the change of src and use width and height.

The onload needs to exist before the src is changed

I assume newElement is a function that does a document.createElement - if it does not return an image object, you need to move the onload to that function 

// internal function that creates an input element
var file=newElement("input",0,"");

// sets the input element as type file
file.type="file";
file.multiple="multiple";
file.name="photoupload[]";
file.accept="image/*";

file.onchange=function(e){
  // internal function that creates an image element
  var img=newElement("img",0,"");
  img.onload=function(){
   var cw=img.width;
   var ch=img.height;
   console.log(cw,ch);
  }
  img.src=URL.createObjectURL(this);
}
file.click();
