jQuery.qrcode

There is a new lib named kjua - works in all modern browsers, crisp codes on all devices.

jQuery.qrcode enables you to dynamically add QR codes to your website. Choose between rendering the code in a canvas or with divs. The latter will be fine even for older browser. The generated QR code will be in the least possible version requiered to encode the content (least number of blocks). See the demo to get a first impression. This plugin is used in h5ai to generate QR codes for file entries.

Usage

The syntax is very simple. Just use

$(selector).qrcode(options);

to append a new generated HTML element representing the QR code to the selected elements. If the selected element already is a canvas element, then the QR code is drawn onto it.

Options

The available options and their default values are:

    // render method: 'canvas', 'image' or 'div'
