Local Image on a WebBrowser control

Hi,

I need to create an HTML page on a WebBrowser and insert there an
image stored in the device.
In the OnLoad event I use the following code :

Dim img As String = "\My Documents\WiSoul\Image1.jpg"
WebBrowser1.DocumentText = "<HTML><BODY>" + _
"<IMG SRC='" + img + "'>" + _
"</BODY></HTML>"

but the image is not found.
Any idea?

Thank's
Marcello

Thank's Nino ana Pete but the following modified code doesn't show the
image (only the aaa string and the image placeholder)

Dim img As String = "file://Programmi/wisoul/test.jpg"
Dim HTML As String = "<HTML><BODY><CENTER>aaa</CENTER><BR>" + _
"<IMG SRC='" + img + "' />" + _
"</BODY></HTML>"
WebBrowser1.DocumentText = HTML

You need to include only one forward slash in the "file:/" definition, change
your code to the following then it should work:

Dim img As String = "file:/Programmi/wisoul/test.jpg"
Dim HTML As String = "<HTML><BODY><CENTER>aaa</CENTER><BR>" + _
"<IMG SRC='" + img + "' />" + _
"</BODY></HTML>"
WebBrowser1.DocumentText = HTML
