This is an experimental technology
Because this technology's specification has not stabilized, check the compatibility table for usage in various browsers. Also note that the syntax and behavior of an experimental technology is subject to change in future versions of browsers as the specification changes.
The HTML <picture>
element is a container used to specify multiple <source>
elements for a specific <img>
contained in it. The browser will choose the most suitable source according to the current layout of the page (the constraints of the box the image will appear in) and the device it will be displayed on (e.g. a normal or hiDPI device.)
Usage Context
Content categories | Flow content, phrasing content, embedded content |
---|---|
Permitted content | Zero or more <source> elements, followed by one <img> element, optionally intermixed with script-supporting elements. |
Tag omission | None, both the starting and ending tag are mandatory. |
Permitted parent elements | Any element that allows embedded content. |
DOM interface | HTMLPictureElement |
Attributes
This element includes only global attributes.
Example 1: Using the media
attribute
The media
attribute lets you specify a media query that the user agent will evaluate to select a <source>
element. If the media query evaluates to false
, the <source>
element is skipped.
<picture> <source srcset="mdn-logo-wide.png" media="(min-width: 600px)"> <img src="mdn-logo-narrow.png" alt="MDN"> </picture>
Example 2: Using the type
attribute
The type
attribute lets you specify a MIME type for the resource(s) given in the <source>
element's srcset attribute. If the user agent does not support the given type, the <source>
element is skipped.
<picture> <source srcset="mdn-logo.svg" type="image/svg+xml"> <img src="mdn-logo.png" alt="MDN"> </picture>
