Detecting support for AVIF, WebP, JPEG 2000, JPEG XR and SVG to supply the best image for the UA
Install
Download/fork the script to your server.
Insert script before any <link> tag to css file, so browser will start to download right images.
<html>
<head>
<title>My Page</title>
<script src="imgsupport.js"></script>
...
<link rel="stylesheet" href="mystyles.css">
...
What this script do?
Like modernizr, it injects one or a few CSS class names to the document element, e. g. <html>, according to which image formats are supported by the browser:
-
jxl– if browser supports JPEG XL, then this class will be added. Currently it's Chrome and Firefox behind a flag. -
avif– if browser supports AVIF, then this class will be added. Currently it's available on Chrome and Opera (not Edge) and in Firefox it's still behind a flag. -
webp– it's already in all modern browsers. But be careful Safari started to support it not that long ago and it's available only in v14+ (BigSur, iOS14+). -
jp2– browser supports JPEG 2000. It's Safari for Mac OS X and all browsers for iOS (based on iOS WebKit). -
jpx– browser supports JPEG XR... Internet Explorer 9+ and old MS Edge till v18. -
svg– all modern browsers, but this class is set only if none of the above formats are supported. Currently it's Firefox only. -
png– if even SVG is not supported... fallback variant. - Additionally are added classes if the format is not supported:
notjxl,notavif,notwebp,notjp2,notjpxandnotsvg.
Example results
Chrome
<html class="notjxl avif webp notjpx notjp2">
Safari
<html class="notjxl notavif webp notjpx jp2">
Firefox
<html class="notjxl notavif webp notjpx notjp2 svg">
Usage
You can use css-cascade to specify what kind of image your browser must download:
.jxl .myelem {
background-image: url('myimage.jxl');
}
.avif.notjxl.notwebp .myelem {
background-image: url('myimage.avif');
}
.webp.notjxl.notavif .myelem {
background-image: url('myimage.webp');
}
.jpx.notavif.notwebp .myelem {
background-image: url('myimage.wdp');
}
.jp2.notavif.notwebp .myelem {
background-image: url('myimage.jp2');
}
.svg .myelem {
background-image: url('myimage.svg');
}
.png .myelem {
background-image: url('myimage.png');
}
