Question

I load a local HTML file in a UIWebView like so:

[webView loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL fileURLWithPath:[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"index" ofType:@"html"]isDirectory:NO]]];    

In my index.html, how do I load a display a local image (added to project through Xcode) with img src=”…”/> ?

Answer 1

Instead of loading with an NSURLRequest, read the html file into an NSString and create an NSURL to the directory with image files.

Then use UIWebView’s - (void)loadHTMLString:(NSString *)string baseURL:(NSURL *)baseURL method.

So, you’d have something like…

NSURL *url = [[NSBundle mainBundle] URLForResource:@"index" withExtension:@"html"];
NSString *html = [NSString stringWithContentsOfURL:url encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding error:nil];

[webView loadHTMLString:html baseURL:[url URLByDeletingLastPathComponent]];
