How to get image file to show in embedded IE frame

I'm running Win7 and AutoIT v3.3.12.0

I've looked at many forum posts about similar issues but i cannot get the html tag '<img src="image.gif">' to show an image in the embedded IE frame of my gui.

I've looked at the following:

'?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>>

'?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>>

 

I've tried changing the _IEDocWriteHTML to _IEBodyWriteHTML with no luck. All I get is a red box with an "x."

Same HTML code works fine as an htm file.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get this to work?

 

Here is my code:

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <IE.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

_MainGUI()

_CloseApp()

Func _MainGUI()
        
    $sHtmlCode = "<html><body>"
    $sHtmlCode = $sHtmlCode & "<img src=""logo.gif"" >"
    $sHtmlCode = $sHtmlCode & "<br><button id=""ExitBtn"">Exit</button>"
    $sHtmlCode = $sHtmlCode & "</body></html>"
    
    Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1)
    Opt("GUICloseOnESC",1)

    $_hMainGui_1 = GUICreate("My GUI", 320, 320,-1,-1,-1,$WS_EX_ACCEPTFILES)

    GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, "_CloseApp", $_hMainGui_1)

    $_h_IE_Frame = _IECreateEmbedded()
     GUICtrlCreateObj($_h_IE_Frame, 10, 10, 300, 300)
     _IENavigate($_h_IE_Frame, "about:blank")
     
    _IEDocWriteHTML($_h_IE_Frame,$sHtmlCode)
     _IELoadWait($_h_IE_Frame)
    
    $_idExitBtn = _IEGetObjById($_h_IE_Frame, "ExitBtn")    
    ObjEvent($_idExitBtn, "_Event_IE_ExitBtn_")
    
    GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $_hMainGui_1) ; will display an empty dialog box

    While 1
      
      Sleep(1000)  ; Idle around
    
    WEnd

EndFunc

Func _Event_IE_ExitBtn_onclick()

    MsgBox(0,"Exit", "You clicked the 'Exit' button.")
    
    _CloseApp()

EndFunc

Func _CloseApp()
    
    Exit

EndFunc

You have to provide the exact path to the gif... 

eg.

$sHtmlCode &= '<img src="file://' & StringReplace(@ScriptDir & "/logo.gif", "\", "/") & '">'

 

I wrote that in here... didn't check for syntax, but hopefully you get the concept...

Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer.

SmOke_N - That was enough to get me there!

This worked -

$sHtmlCode = $sHtmlCode & "<img src=file://" & StringReplace(@ScriptDir & "/logo.gif", "\", "/") & " >"

Relitive path vs absolute path mixed into html tags with and/or without quotes...I love the alchemy of syntax!

Thank you sir!
