Scroll2Play constructor accepts following parameters:

• elId - Scroll2Play container id.

• imgPrefix - Image file prefix.
• imgsCount - Number of available images.
• imgsType - Images type, like: 'jpg', 'png', 'gif'...
• imgsNumFormat - Format for images numbering, like: 0000 will be substitued with 0001, 0002,...,0010 etc.

Functions

Instance of Scroll2Play has only one function load that intiates loading of low res images.

Events

It dispatches three events:

• onload - Dispatched when loading images is complete.
• onprogress - Dispatched during images loading with a progress value param.
• onerror - Dispatched when loading any of the images failes. After this event loading of images is stopped.

Usage

This is how you can use it in your own project:

// Instantiate Scroll2Play
var s2p = new Scroll2Play('s2p-container', 'images/lowres', 'images/highres', 'wakey-', 55, 'jpg', '00');

// Listen to progress of images loading
s2p.onprogress = function(progress) {
    var loader = document.querySelector('.loader');
    loader.innerHTML = 'Loading ' + Math.floor(progress * 100) + '%';
}

// Images loaded event
s2p.onload = function() {
    document.body.classList.remove('loading');
}

// Listen to images loading error
s2p.onerror = function(e) {
    alert('Couldn't load sequance images!');
}

// Start images loading
