I'm playing with code trying to develop some simple Flashcard like stuff using html text files and external images.
I'm not really wanting to use a Browser Object as I think that might be overkill and possibly problematic, so I'm loading the html files into an array and just replacing the htmlText in a field for the next screen. It's a single card with a single field (and a next button).
The problem I'm facing is that I'd like to display the images in the field too. I have used the imageSource route before to set dynamic images for single characters in list fields - that worked great

I'm currently putting placeholder "$" characters in the html and then using code like: set the imageSource of char n of field "the_field" to tFile
where n is the char number of the "$", and tFile is the path of the file on disk (it's correct btw)
The above makes the "$" vanish, but no picture appears

I hope that all makes sense - if not then I can clarify any parts that don't.
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers,
Dave
