Use AJAX to display php generated image

Question

I have a php script that randomly generates an image. Something like this:

Answer 1

The src attribute of an image tag actually expects an URL not actual JPEG data.

Try this:

 $(function(){
      $('#button').click(function(){
          $('#image').attr('src', 'models/plugins/image.php?rand=' + Math.floor(Math.random()*1000) );
      });
 });
