I'm trying to import an HTML into calibre. So I make an index.html file, but the images get stripped out. This is a rather large file (60 MB), with many many image files. the image files are located in subfolders of the same directory as the index.html file.

Also when I add the book with calibredb, it says IgnoreFile...file is binary, pertaining to the pages of the images (ex. Figure1-1.htm). Does that have something to do with it?

The images are of a subdirectory of the folder where the index.html file is located. The links to the images are relative, an example is: <img src=chpix/sample1.1.gif border=0>

I've also tried to compress the folder into a zip file and import the zip file, and that shows a file of about the size of the html file with images, but when I convert the file to epub or try to view the zip file, it only shows the index.html file and no other pages of the document.

Any help would be appreciated.
