<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.4/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function()
{
var image = new Image();
var ctx = $('#canvas')[0].getContext("2d");
image.src = "http://www.google.com/intl/en_com/images/srpr/logo3w.png";
//image.src = "/agents/google.png";
image.width="340";
image.height="220";
image.onload = function ()
{
ctx.drawImage(image, 0, 0, image.width, image.height);
}
$('#canvas').mousemove(function(e)
{
var canvasOffset = $(this).offset();
var canvasX = Math.floor(e.pageX - canvasOffset.left);
var canvasY = Math.floor(e.pageY - canvasOffset.top);
var imageData = ctx.getImageData(canvasX, canvasY, 1, 1);
var pixel = imageData.data;
var pixelColor = "rgba("+pixel[0]+", "+pixel[1]+", "+pixel[2]+", "+pixel[3]+")";
$(document.body).css('background-color',pixelColor);
});
});

It’s not possible to directly read an image from another domain.
However, manipulate images from another domain can be achieved by getting a base-64 string interpretation of the image, and use it.
This feature is implemented in jQuery by the
$.imagedataplugin, which can be downloaded at this site.
