Using custom cookies to get images to be shown inside HTML document in RadRichTextBox

[MOGRO]

I use WPF RadRichTextBox to show/edit HTML-document containing images having restricted access. To show HTML-document inside RadRichTextBox I use HtmlFormatProvider.
In the case of using WebBrowser control, it is enough to call InternetSetCookie to pass user token to the WebRequest used there.

How can I pass the user token to the HTTP request used inside RadRichTextBox to get an image?

Hello Morten,

I believe that the LoadImageFromUrl event is suitable for this case. Here is an example that shows how you can set the image (in your case you should download the image manully and set the data):

public MainWindow()
{
    InitializeComponent();
 
    HtmlFormatProvider provider = new HtmlFormatProvider();
    provider.ImportSettings.LoadImageFromUrl += ImportSettings_LoadImageFromUrl;
    provider.Import(File.ReadAllText(@"..\..\test.html"));
}

private void ImportSettings_LoadImageFromUrl(object sender, LoadImageEventArgs e)
{
    e.Handled = true;
    using (FileStream source = File.Open(@"..\..\test.png", FileMode.Open))
    {
        e.ImageElement.Init(source, "png");
    }

}

I hope this helps. Should you have any other questions do not hesitate to ask.
