Android Question Opening Web Pages From Device Storage

[treehousefrog]

Hey guys,

So I want to use a webview in order to load a HTML file that is saved on the user's device in a folder. This works fine, except that all the images are dead. The HTML points to the images with <a href = "image.jpg"> as normal, and the images are in the same folder as the HTML file itself...

So could anyone please explain what's going on here and perhaps provide a fix? It would be a huge help

Thanks a lot in advance!

Are you using LoadUrl("file://sdcard/index.html") ?

You have to specify the path to that picture like this:

<img src='file:///android_asset/mypicture.jpg'/>

The example above displays a picture saved in DirAssets.

Thanks a lot guys, makes sense. I'll just have to edit the code on the fly
