Hey, I have a webView inside my iPhone app. The webView opens a html page (not on iPhone) on a server. Now the website contains an html image. Since iPhone doesnt cach and is loading slowly i like to link the html image to a local resource in my app.

Does anyone know how to do this? Is that even possible?

You could try it is a "file://item.png" in your HTML. The images would have to go in your bundle - I think.

Try looking at this post:

NSString *localPng = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"item"
                                                       ofType:@"png"];
NSData *htmlData = [NSData dataWithContentsOfFile:localPng];
[webView loadData:htmlData MIMEType:@"text/html" textEncodingName:@"UTF-8"
                                             baseURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@""]];
