im writing a script (or editing and hacking things together) to edit the look of images on a page. I know the basics of javascript but this is my first time looking at canvas. so bear with me

I'm getting this error:

Unable to get image data from canvas because the canvas has been tainted by cross-origin data.

so heres my code snippet throwing the error:

var canvas = document.createElement('canvas'),
            context = canvas.getContext('2d'),
            height = img.naturalHeight || img.offsetHeight || img.height,
            width = img.naturalWidth || img.offsetWidth || img.width,
            imgData;


        canvas.height = height;
        canvas.width = width;
        context.drawImage(img, 0, 0);

        console.log(context);
        try {
            imgData = context.getImageData(0, 0, width, height);
        } catch(e) {}

now i found this post :

http://bolsterweb.com/2012/06/grabbing-image-data-external-source-canvas-element/

but i have no idea how to make it fit my needs..

I know its all due to security and all that - but is there a work around to make it all happen?

Thanks

EDIT

Oh wait.. the error is because you can't getImageData.. so is there away to make it 'local'

To satisfy CORS, you can host your images on a CORS friendly site like dropbox.com

Then the security error will not be triggered if you speify image.crossOrigin="anonymous":

    var image=new Image();
    image.onload=function(){
    }
    image.crossOrigin="anonymous";
    image.src="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/139992952/stackoverflow/colorhouse.png";

Here is code and a Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/m1erickson/4djSr/

<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all" href="css/reset.css" /> <!-- reset css -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery.min.js"></script>

<style>
    body{ background-color: ivory; }
    #canvas{border:1px solid red;}
</style>

<script>
$(function(){

    var canvas=document.getElementById("canvas");
    var ctx=canvas.getContext("2d");

    var image=new Image();
    image.onload=function(){
        ctx.drawImage(image,0,0);

        // desaturation colors
        var imgData=ctx.getImageData(0,0,canvas.width,canvas.height);
        var data=imgData.data;

        for(var i = 0; i < data.length; i += 4) {
          var grayscale= 0.33*data[i]+0.5*data[i+1]+0.15*data[i+2];
          data[i]=grayscale;
          data[i+1]=grayscale;
          data[i+2]=grayscale;
        }

        // write the modified image data
        ctx.putImageData(imgData,0,0);

    }
    image.crossOrigin="anonymous";
    image.src="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/139992952/stackoverflow/colorhouse.png";



}); // end $(function(){});
</script>

</head>

<body>
    <canvas id="canvas" width=140 height=140></canvas>
</body>
</html>
