Hi,

I have a datatable with a column whose content is something like this:

html.Img(src=“…”)

How do I tweak my code in a way that I get an image in the datatable instead of a string as the one above?

HI @subodhpokhrel7 welcome to the forums.

I used this path because I couldn’t load an image from a local directory, unlike all the provided examples where the image is sourced from the web(http://). I would greatly appreciate an example for any of the aforementioned scenarios.
