HTML problem img tag

Image tags to local file in html that used to work no longer do. V.1.1.2

ie <img src="myimage.jpeg" width="129" height="129" />
Image file is in the Resources folder.

Just shows broken link tried different references ../myimage.jpeg /myimage.jpeg /Resources/myimage.jpeg

This seems pretty basic to quit working.

  • I have the same problem. I can make a webview that loads a web page (index.html), but the web page can't seem to reference anything in the Resources directory…
    e.g.:

    <img class="logo" src="logo.png"/>

    gives me a broken image in the emulators. src="app://logo.png" causes Titanium desktop to throw an error – "[Error] Error loading app://logo.png". So what's up with that?

  • I've finally gotten img references to work in 1.2

    Reference that works for me <img src="app://somefolder/myimage.jpeg" >

    in this somefolder is absolutely required it can be 'Resources' but I just added an 'images' folder inside Resources to put them in.

    ie <img src="app://images/myimage.jpeg" >

    This <img src="app://myimage.jpeg" > will cause the app to crash when it loads the page.

    Haven't tested this on an actual phone yet.

  • Eldon,
    Just to make sure I get it right, app:&#x2F;&#x2F;images&#x2F; resolves to the directory Resources&#x2F;images in the development environement ? In my case, it does not work, image can't be found. I am using Titanium 1.2 targeting Android 1.6.

    Anybody got this method to work on Android ?

  • Try something like this and see if it works (assuming your image file is in the Resources folder):

    app://myimage.jpeg

    • What if my image is downloaded and stored in applicationDataDirectory? Is there any way to load that image on webview?
