How to cancel image loading?

[Sophy]

Hi folks,

Now, I am facing problem with canceling image loading.
I have tried:

var img = new Image();
img.src = "path/to/the/image";

// and then I set the img.src to another source

img.src = "somewhere/else";

In this case the browse still loading the image from the first source
("path/to/the/image")

Do you guys know how to stop image from loading?

Cheers,

Not with clientside javascript.

You could force the browser to close by external means,
like pulling the plug??

Can you tell me more about this(pulling and plug)?

Yes, look at the back of your computer,
There are many wires, one of them thicker than the others,
usually but not neccessarily black.
That one usually has a connector on both ends.
Disconnect one of those connectors.

Seems a bit off topic too, Sophy.

How about:
var img = new Image();
img.src = "path/to/the/image";
....
// Oh, shit I changed my mind for some reason
img = new Image();
img.src = "somewhere/else";
