I followed the loading external data [tutorial](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/externaldata.htm) fine, is there any way to load pictures too? Right now, I added

```auto

    myText_txt.html=true;
    myText_txt.htmlText = this.frontpage;

```

However, when I do a \<img src=“asdf.jpg”\>, it doesn’t show up. Any ideas?
