Answer 1

Ok, I am assuming you are using loadHTMLString to set the HTML on your UIWebView.

So to reference images that are stored in your App bundle, you just need to get the right path to put in your img tag. So get the path string:

NSString * imgPath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:nameOfImage ofType:@"jpg"];

Format some HTML with an image tag:

NSString * html = NSString [[[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@"<img src=\"file://%@\"/>", imgPath] autorelease];

Then set your HTML on the web view:

[self.webView loadHTMLString:html baseURL:nil];

You just need to add the images to your app resources (nameOfImage in the code above) and it will work fine.
