Clear an IMG with jQuery

Question

I\'m trying to remove the loaded image from a element, but clearing or removing the src doesn\'t do it. What to do?

HTML:

Answer 1

You would have to either remove the <img> element entirely or replace it with a different image (which could be a transparent gif).

Answer 2

Instead of showing broken image while setting "src" to "#", There is a workaround, so you can set alt attribute to the desired text:

 $('#thumbnialPreviewImage').attr('src', '#');
 $('#thumbnialPreviewImage').attr('alt', 'Please Select Image');

Answer 3

the best way is to replace image with another. i mean instead of cleaning the src, set a fake value like .attr('src','notting'); it'll load no image and the cached version of old image will be gone
