You can specify a base URL when loading HTML in a UIWebView. If you set the base URL to your bundle path, you can simply reference the background image as if it was in the current directory.

NSString *path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] bundlePath];
NSURL *baseURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:path];

[webView loadHTMLString:htmlPage baseURL:baseURL];

in your HTML:

body { 
  background: url(bg.jpg); // "bg.jpg" is in your bundle
}
