How to show an image in the email body?

Note: I don't want to attach the Image to the Email

I want to show an image in the email body,

I had tried the HTML image tag <img src=\"http://url/to/the/image.jpg\">" and I got output as you can see in this my question on How to add an image in email body, so I tired Html.ImageGetter.

It does not work for me, it also gives me the same output, so I have a doubt is it possible to do this,

My code

Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL,new String[] {"abc@gmail.com"}); 
i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT,
    Html.fromHtml("Hi <img src='http://url/to/the/image.jpg'>",
    imgGetter,
    null));

i.setType("image/png");
startActivity(Intent.createChooser开发者_StackOverflow中文版(i,"Email:"));


private ImageGetter imgGetter = new ImageGetter() {

    public Drawable getDrawable(String source) {
        Drawable drawable = null;
            try {
                drawable = getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.icon);
                drawable.setBounds(0, 0, drawable.getIntrinsicWidth(),
                    drawable.getIntrinsicHeight());
            } catch (Exception e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
                Log.d("Exception thrown",e.getMessage());
            } 
            return drawable;
    }
};

UPDATE 1: If I use the ImageGetter code for TextView I am able to get the text and image but I am not able to see the image in the email body

Here is my code:

TextView t = null;
t = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.textviewdemo);
t.setText(Html.fromHtml("Hi <img src='http://url/to/the/image.jpg'>",
    imgGetter,
    null));

UPDATE 2: I had used bold tag and anchor tag as i shown below these tag are working fine , but when i used img tag i can able to see a square box which say as OBJ

 i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT,Html.fromHtml("<b>Hi</b><a href='http://www.google.com/'>Link</a> <img src='http://url/to/the/image.jpg'>",
        imgGetter,
        null));

Unfortunately, it's not possible to do this with Intents.

The reason why for example bold text is displayed in the EditText and not an Image is that StyleSplan is implementing Parcelable whereas ImageSpan does not. So when the Intent.EXTRA_TEXT is retrieved in the new Activity the ImageSpan will fail to unparcel and therefor not be part of the style appended to the EditText.

Using other methods where you don't pass the data with the Intent is unfortunately not possible here as you're not in control of the receiving Activity.

Two simple suggestions first:

• Close your img tag (<img src="..." /> instead of <img src="...">)
• Use i.setType("text/html") instead of i.setType("image/png")

If neither of those work, maybe you try attaching the image to the email and then referencing it using "cid:ATTACHED_IMAGE_CONTENT_ID" rather than an "http:URL_TO_IMAGE" ?

Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL,new String[] {"abc@gmail.com"}); 
i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse("http://url/to/the/image.jpg");
i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT,
        Html.fromHtml("Hi <img src='cid:image.jpg' />", //completely guessing on 'image.jpg' here
        imgGetter,
        null));
i.setType("image/png");

See the section titled Sending HTML formatted email with embedded images in the apache email user guide

Though, then you would need to know the content-id of the attached image, and I'm not sure if that is surfaced via the standard Intent approach. Maybe you could inspect the raw email and determine their naming conventions?

I know this doesn't answer the original question but perhaps an acceptable alternative for some people is attaching the image to the email instead. I managed to achieve this with the following code...

String urlOfImageToDownload = "https://ssl.gstatic.com/s2/oz/images/google-logo-plus-0fbe8f0119f4a902429a5991af5db563.png";

// Start to build up the email intent
Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
i.setType("message/rfc822");
i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[] { "abc@mail.com" });
i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "Check Out This Image");
i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "There should be an image attached");

// Do we need to download and attach an icon and is the SD Card available?
if (urlOfImageToDownload != null && Environment.MEDIA_MOUNTED.equals(Environment.getExternalStorageState())) {
    // Download the icon...
    URL iconUrl = new URL(urlOfImageToDownload);
    HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection) iconUrl.openConnection();
    connection.setDoInput(true);
    connection.connect();
    InputStream input = connection.getInputStream();
    Bitmap immutableBpm = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(input);

    // Save the downloaded icon to the pictures folder on the SD Card
    File directory = Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_PICTURES);
    directory.mkdirs(); // Make sure the Pictures directory exists.
    File destinationFile = new File(directory, attachmentFileName);
    FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(destinationFile);
    immutableBpm.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 90, out);
    out.flush();
    out.close();
    Uri mediaStoreImageUri = Uri.fromFile(destinationFile);     

    // Add the attachment to the intent
    i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, mediaStoreImageUri);
}                       

// Fire the intent
startActivity(i);

    i resolve problem send image as a body mail in android

   you have need three lib  of java mail 

    1.activation.jar
