I have a webpage with multiple thumbnails all positioned side-by-side. When an image is clicked, a modal window pops up displaying a larger version of the image and a close button. I want the window to change its image src when one of the image "buttons" is clicked. So i have attempted to put an attribute called "imgsrc" inside the span elements which are all under the div whose class="graveyard-dump"
HTML
\button that looks like a thumbnail of "image 04"\
<button button="click"
class="graveyard-btn graveyard-primary"
data-toggle="modal"
data-target="#exampleModal"
imgsrc="http://example.com/wp-content/uploads/04.png">
<img src= "http://example.com/wp-content/uploads/04.png">
</button>
\Image of modal set to "image 22" as default\
<div class="modal-body">
<img class="modal-image"
src="http://example.com/wp-content/uploads/22.png"
alt="Click on button" />
Non-working jQuery
\On Click change the modal image src attribute to the value at imgsrc of the thumbnail element clicked\
$('.graveyard-dump span').ready(function click(f) {
$('.graveyard-dump span').click(function click(f) {
$('.modal-image').attr('src', $(this).attr("imgsrc"));
});
});
I got the idea to reuse code from another program I have which changes a series of css elements and text on click. Here is some code that works which i stole the idea from:
HTML
///Red button with many attribute values for the jQuery to read and place///
<span class="redbtn1"
picChange="url(http://example.com/wp-content/uploads/Resin-Red.png)"
name="Red"
color="#ff0000"
background1="#ff2400"
background2="#ba110c"
background3="#90021F"
background4="none"
name1="Scarlet"
name2="Crimson"
name3="Burgundy"
name4="-"
></span>
jQuery
///Reads a click, adds the class "active" and removes it from other buttons, changes many attributes around the page. None of these are attribute-attribute changes though.///
$('.changecolor span').ready(function click(f) {
$('.changecolor span').click(function click(f) {
$('.changecolor span').removeClass("active");
$(this).addClass("active");
$('.pic').css('background-image', $(this).attr("picChange"));
$('.name').text($(this).attr("name"));
$('.name').css('color', $(this).attr("color"));
$('.colorbar-1').css('background', $(this).attr('background1'));
$('.colorbar-2').css('background', $(this).attr('background2'));
$('.colorbar-3').css('background', $(this).attr('background3'));
$('.colorbar-4').css('background', $(this).attr('background4'));
$('.colorbar-1').text($(this).attr("name1"));
$('.colorbar-2').text($(this).attr("name2"));
$('.colorbar-3').text($(this).attr("name3"));
$('.colorbar-4').text($(this).attr("name4"));

The fix was to use
I set '.modal-image' src attribute to the attribute "imgsrc" of the button clicked. I also had to remove the starter image located in .modal-image src or it would try to load that image on the first click.
You could achieve the image source change like this
<img id="display" src=""/>
<button onclick="$('display').src='https://imageLink.com'">Click me</button>
