Stop a gif animation onload, on mouseover start the activation

by

No, you can’t control the animation of the images.

You would need two versions of each image, one that is animated, and one that’s not. On hover you can easily change from one image to another.

Example:

$(function(){
  $('img').each(function(e){
    var src = $(e).attr('src');
    $(e).hover(function(){
      $(this).attr('src', src.replace('.gif', '_anim.gif'));
    }, function(){
      $(this).attr('src', src);
    });
  });
});

Update:

Time goes by, and possibilities change. As kritzikatzi pointed out, having two versions of the image is not the only option, you can apparently use a canvas element to create a copy of the first frame of the animation. Note that this doesn’t work in all browsers, IE 8 for example doesn’t support the canvas element.
