Android HTML resource with references to other resources

Question

I would like to add an HTML resource to my Android project with references to other resources (mainly drawables).

Where should I put it and how do I reference other resources from it?

Is there a particular way to pass the HTML resource to a WebView?

Thanks!

Answer 1

The html file goes into the assets folder in root (as a sibling folder of res), as well as all the drawables. You can view it by doing something like

webView.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/filename.html");

Answer 2

If your file is on the SD card, this reference will work:

content://com.android.htmlfileprovider/sdcard/filename.jpg
