I am using a simple textview to show some html string in my android app. If I show only text with links I have no problem, but when I receive some data which contains images and tables the images are showing like obj string only and the tablet are not even shown, only the text part is showing. I know I can use webview, but i don't have so much control of the contents view and I can't customize it so much as in textview.

Is there any way that I can show tables and images in textview, while the images are saved on sd card. I don't need any methods to download them from internet and stuff like that.

Any help / suggestions / advices are appreciated!

No. TextView is not WebView. Use the latter for more markup that elementary attributes like <B>, <U> or tags like <A>
