My apologies to resurrect a new thread the previous thread (since I was unable to edit the previous thread)
Is there a way to add an image in webview using html?
I am trying the following but no luck

self.Info=wx.html2.WebView.New(self)
self.Info.SetPage(
“”"<!doctype html>



Hello

“”"
)

Also Is it possible to use css in webview to select a customized font from a font file on a local machine? I have been attempting to do this but no luck

Thanks…

Web view can, of course, display images - however your html needs to be
valid - e.g. <img src='/root/bizpic4.jpg'> needs to be a valid url and
should really be a terminated tag so:
<img src='file:/root/bizpic4.jpg' />
is a lot more likely to work.

Thanks Steve (Gadget) Barnes)

I tried using placing my html codes in a file and using the “.LoadPage” method in webview and the image displayed nicely…
However This was not my choice of using html because creating several html files and loading it into webview can be a security loophole

SOLUTION (not elegant but I can work with it until i figured out a nicer way)

I found this link http://wxpython.org/Phoenix/docs/html/html2.WebView.html which mentioned “data://” and look up wikipedia data URI scheme - Wikipedia, on how to use it…
I converted my image to base64 string and save the information directly in my gui program. Afterwards I was able to load the image as follows:

I hope the .SetPage method for Webview can allow for loading image and font files using the “src” attribute in html in the future (I haven’t quite figure out what happened here).
