jQuery callback on image load (even when the image is cached)

Question

I want to do:

$(\"img\").bind(\'load\', function() {
  // do stuff
});

But the load event doesn\'t fire when the image is loaded from cache

If you want a pure CSS solution, this trick works very well - use the transform object. This also works with images when they're cached or not:

CSS:

.main_container{
    position: relative;
    width: 500px;
    height: 300px;
    background-color: #cccccc;
}

.center_horizontally{
  position: absolute;
  width: 100px;
  height: 100px;
  background-color: green;
  left: 50%;
  top: 0;
  transform: translate(-50%,0);
}

.center_vertically{
  position: absolute;
  top: 50%;
  left: 0;
  width: 100px;
  height: 100px;
  background-color: blue;
  transform: translate(0,-50%);
}

.center{
  position: absolute;
  top: 50%;
  left: 50%;
  width: 100px;
  height: 100px;
  background-color: red;
  transform: translate(-50%,-50%);
}
