It works absolutely fine for me! Using the html string you have below in a bare bones mxml project. Anything else you should mention?

Subject: [flexcoders] AIR - Including an Image in mx:html using htmlText
How does one reference files like images when using an mx:html tag and
the htmlText property? Here's the basic idea:
private var strHtmlText:XML =
<html>
<head>
<title>Test</title>
</head>
<body>
<img width="100px" height="100px" alt="image" src="foo.jpg" />
</body>
</html>
...
<mx:HTML width="800" height="800" htmlText="{strHtmlText.toString()}" />
This doesn't work. The image doesn't appear but the alt text does. I
tried playing with the value in the src attribute of the image object
in the html string to no avail. I tried app:foo.jpg, app:/foo.jpg,
app://foo.jpg, and /foo.jpg. I event tried @Embed(source='foo.jpg'). I
have copies of foo.jpg in the project root, the src directory, and in
bin-debug. Nothing works. I feel a bit silly posting this because it
must be obvious, but I've searched and searched for the answer with no
luck. Thanks.
