Access a drawable resource as an image in a webview

Issue

I have a png file in my package, and I just want to use it as the source for an image I am loading via html in a webview.

So far I have tried, this, this and this. None of which have actually worked.

Here is how I am adding the img tag to the html. Can anyone help me? I'm trying to build this for as early of an SDK version as possible (currently 4 [1.6])

String stringPath = "fie:///android_asset/chat_bubble.png";
addOn = String.format("<img src=\"%s\" >", stringPath);

Solution

(I assume you copied the code piece from your project.)

There is a typo:

String stringPath = "fie:///android_asset/chat_bubble.png";

should be

String stringPath = "file:///android_asset/chat_bubble.png";

And you didn't closed <img> tag:

addOn = String.format("<img src=\"%s\" >", stringPath);

should be

addOn = String.format("<img src=\"%s\" />", stringPath);
