AFAIK you can't. Though you could perhaps tweak security I believe that
starting with SP2, a web page can't access all local resources even if this
could be considered safe (such as having a src attribute that points to a
local file).

What have you trieed that doesn't work ? (My first thought would be to set
the src attribute of an img tag to the selected file but I believe it won't
work if the file is local, an easy solution if small files would be to
upload the file to the server so that the resource is not local any more).

hi! this is amrit.
sameproblem washappening with me as i also develop applicationsin
asp.net using vb.net.
what you can do for this is you can place a hidden field on for the
html controls toolbox,
and then you have to load that URL in that hidden field bvefore loading
it to the image control.

then lateron, you can access that url.
But the problem that i was facing was that i have to load 5 pics at a
time and using 10 hidden fields in form is not a good practice.


take care
have a nice stay..
