Can someone help me troubleshoot the issue I'm having with capturing an image using HTML2Canvas library? The code below includes a tab with an image inside it, but for some reason, the image is not being captured when I try to download the entire div.
I've attempted to add the configuration option allowTaint:true
, but I keep getting this error message
DOMException: Failed to execute 'toDataURL' on 'HTMLCanvasElement': Tainted canvases may not be exported.
. I'm unsure why this problem persists, and any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
function sendData() {
html2canvas(document.getElementById('capture')).then(function(canvas) {
$('#test').append(canvas);
$('#test').attr('href', canvas.toDataURL('image/png'));
$('#test').attr('download', 'Test.png');
$('#test')[0].click();
});
}
function openCity(evt, cityName) {
var i, tabcontent, tablinks;
tabcontent = document.getElementsByClassName("tabcontent");
for (i = 0; i < tabcontent.length; i++) {
tabcontent[i].style.display = "none";
}
tablinks = document.getElementsByClassName("tablinks");
for (i = 0; i < tablinks.length; i++) {
tablinks[i].className = tablinks[i].className.replace(" active", "");
}
document.getElementById(cityName).style.display = "block";
evt.currentTarget.className += " active";
}
document.getElementById("defaultOpen").click();
