Question

I have a html file (contains some text and one image) stored @ /sdcard/test folder.
And image is also stored under same folder. I’am able to see the image on html file if i open html file programmatically (using a WebView).

((WebView)findViewById(R.id.webView)).loadUrl("file:///mnt/sdcard/test/report_external.html");

It works. But when i go to that folder and open that html file (using default web browser of android), image file is not getting displayed. It is showing everything except image. What is the problem with default android browser to view the html file? Are there any differences between opening the file using defalut browser & WebView?
Here is my image tag in html

<img src = "file:///mnt/sdcard/test/image.png"></img>

How could i see the image on html if it opened with default browser also?

I think there’s something wrong with your img-path. Try to set src="image.png", it should work when both files are in the same directory. Let me know if it works.
