Jquery Add Alt Tag To Images With Same Src

There are many images with same URL source but the first image only that has the Alt tag, so how can I add alt to the other image with the same source? Simply I need filter images

Solution 1:

1. get all unique src attributes,
2. for each unique src attribute, get all images that use it
3. for each set, find a member with alt and then assing that to the entire set.

In code:

const uniques = [];
const imgs = $('img');

imgs.each(function () {
  let src = this.src;
  if (uniques.indexOf(src) === -1) uniques.push(src);
});

uniques.forEach(src => {
  let srcd = imgs.filter("img[src='"+src+"']");
  let alt = srcd.filter('[alt]').first().attr('alt');

  srcd.each( function() {
    $(this).attr('alt',alt);
  })
});

Solution 2:

The first version (with comments) assigns the value of only the first instance of alt to all images:

$(function () {
    // Get value of first instance of 'alt' for images within elements of the given classvar alt = $(".colourDots img[alt]").first().attr("alt");
    // If value of 'alt' is not null or undefined// (Note, use != and not !== for this test)if (alt != null) {
        // Iterate images within elements of class .colourDots
        $.each($(".colourDots img"), function () {
            // assign value of var alt to each image
            $(this).attr("alt", alt);
        });
    }
});

and the second version assigns the alt value of the element to subsequent images (so alt="bbb" in your question is picked up and assigned to subsequent images):

$(function () {
    // Define a holding variablevar alt;
    // Iterate images
    $.each($(".colourDots img"), function () {
        // If element has 'alt', assign the value to var altif ($(this).attr("alt") != null) {
            alt = $(this).attr("alt");
        }
        // otherwise assign the value of var alt to the imageelse {
            $(this).attr("alt", alt);
        }
    });
});

You can take your pick, depending on what your specific needs are.
