Actually the idea for the post come from one my response in <a title="StackOverflow" href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13177698/select-an-image-and-manipulate-it-in-javascript-no-form-submission/13178084#13178084" target="_blank">stackoverflow</a>. The post is connected with pure client side image scaling. While you’re reading the example I hope that you’ll see how powerful is the HTML5 API and how with few lines of code you can do something which in other technologies is much more complex.<br> So firstly I’ll post the source code with the example in JSFiddle, after that I’m going to explain everything step by step.</p>
