This project integrates the jQuery Lazy Load Plugin for Rails image_tag helpers

• Automatically get Rails image_tag helpers to render lazyload-friendly html img tags.
• Simple, really. That's pretty much it.

<%= image_tag "kittenz.png", alt: "OMG a cat!" %>

Equals:

<img alt="OMG a cat!" data-original="/images/kittenz.png" src="http://www.appelsiini.net/projects/lazyload/img/grey.gif">

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem "lazyload-rails"

Download the jQuery Lazy Load Plugin into your vendor/assets/javascripts directory and include it however you prefer.

Important: Remember that the Lazy Load Plugin depends on jQuery.

• Q: How can I use the old image_tag method?
• R: Try with x_image_tag
