I have a database table that holds a series of records in HTML format. (These are built on an on-going basis by actions taken by the user). They are then reported in a "History Report".. a sample of a few rows might be....
Condition # 1100 ___<br />
<b>B. D. Smith</b><br />
etc...
Now, B.D. Smith is a person whose picture I would like to display ...in old-fashioned HTML I would just change the row to something like
<b><img src='foo.png'>B. D. Smith</img></b><br />
Which does not seem to work in my RadRichTextBox. I assume this is because the <img> tag is not supported as part of your HTML support. When I try this an simply put 'foo.png' in the ClientBin folder, it displays as a blank character on my "History Report".
Note: The reason I'm putting the image in ClientBin is that I want the image to be available from a url, not from inside the xap file. If I can get this to work in ClientBin, then I can change my HTML to get the image from a common repository. I just thought that ClientBin would be the simplest case for my initial tests.
I'm using the control like this in the XAML:
<telerik:RadRichTextBox x:Name="ReportPage" IsReadOnly="true" Background="White"
IsSpellCheckingEnabled="False" Width="940" >
</telerik:RadRichTextBox>
I build the HTML string and then do the binding... in the .VB file
Me.ReportPage.DataContext = _weeklyReports(_weekNumber)
ReportPage.Document = ImportHTML(_weeklyReports(_weekNumber))
(This is a conversion from an old desktop program...most of my old html formatting works, or I have been able to make it work by using the HTML tags provided in
http://www.telerik.com/help/silverlight/radrichtextbox-features-html-support.html
Can you give me a solution for displaying an image, a starting point or a wag of the finger telling me I'm totally off base on my approach? Thank you.

Hmm. I don't see a way to delete the post.
I tried <img src='http://fissure001.simulationpoweredlearning.com/Client/ClientBin/test.png'>...
and that works! So, apparently I'm ok using <img> tags. I just have to be careful where I put them and how I access them.
