How to display images from an array in JavaScript ?

Displaying images from an array in JavaScript involves storing image URLs within the array and dynamically generating HTML elements, such as <img>, using JavaScript. By iterating over the array, each image URL is used to create <img> elements, which are then appended to the document for display.

Below are the approaches that could be used to display images from an array in JavaScript

Syntax:

<img src="image-url" alt="alternative-text">

Here, the src attribute specifies the URL of the image, and the alt attribute provides alternative text for the image if it cannot be displayed.

Approach 1: Using a For Loop

We can use a loop to iterate through the array of images and display each image using the <img> tag.

Example: In this example, we have an array of image URLs, and we use a for loop to iterate through the array and create an <img> tag for each image. We set the src attribute of each <img> tag to the corresponding image URL and append it to the container element.

HTML
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>

<head>
    <title>Display Images from Array</title>
</head>

<body>
    <h1 style="color: green;">

    </h1>
    
    <h1>Display Images from Array using a Loop</h1>
    
    <div id="image-container"></div>
    
    <script>
        const images = [
'https://media.geeksforgeeks.org/wp-content/uploads/20230306120634/unnamed.jpg',
'https://media.geeksforgeeks.org/wp-content/uploads/20230306120634/unnamed.jpg',
'https://media.geeksforgeeks.org/wp-content/uploads/20230306120634/unnamed.jpg'
        ];
    
        const container = document.getElementById('image-container');
    
        for (let i = 0; i < images.length; i++) {
            const img = document.createElement('img');
            img.src = images[i];
            container.appendChild(img);
        }
    </script>
</body>

</html>

Output:

using loop method

Approach 2: Using Array.map() Method

We can use the map() method of the array to create an array of <img> tags and then join them into a string to display them in the HTML.

Example: In this example, we create an array of <img> tags using the map() method of the array. We set the src attribute of each <img> tag to the corresponding image URL using a template literal. Finally, we join the array of <img> tags into a string and set it as the innerHTML of the container element.

HTML
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>

<head>
    <title>Display Images from Array</title>
</head>

<body>
    <h1 style="color: green;">
        GeeksforGeeks
    </h1>
    
    <h1>
        Display Images from Array 
        using Array.map()
    </h1>
    
    <div id="image-container"></div>
    
    <script>
        const images = [
'https://media.geeksforgeeks.org/wp-content/uploads/20230306120634/unnamed.jpg',
'https://media.geeksforgeeks.org/wp-content/uploads/20230306120634/unnamed.jpg',
'https://media.geeksforgeeks.org/wp-content/uploads/20230306120634/unnamed.jpg'
        ];

        const container = 
            document.getElementById('image-container');

        const imageTags = 
            images.map(img => `<img src="${img}">`);

        container.innerHTML = imageTags.join('');
    </script>
</body>

</html>

Output:

using Array.map() method

Approach 3: Using a forEach() method

We can iterate over the whole array of elements using the forEach() method and can display image using <img> tag.

Example: In this example, we have an array of image URLs, and we use a forEach() to iterate through the array and create an <img> tag for each image. We set the src attribute of each <img> tag to the corresponding image URL and append it to the container element.

HTML
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>Display Images from Array</title>
</head>

<body>
    <h1 style="color: green;">
        GeeksforGeeks
    </h1>

    <h1>
          Display Images from Array using 
          Array.forEach()
      </h1>

    <div id="image-container"></div>

    <script>
        const images = [
'https://media.geeksforgeeks.org/wp-content/uploads/20230306120634/unnamed.jpg',
'https://media.geeksforgeeks.org/wp-content/uploads/20230306120634/unnamed.jpg',
'https://media.geeksforgeeks.org/wp-content/uploads/20230306120634/unnamed.jpg'
        ];

        const container = document.getElementById('image-container');
        images.forEach(image => {
            const img = document.createElement('img');
            img.src = image;
            container.appendChild(img);
        })
    </script>
</body>
</html>

Output:

Using forEach()
