Hello,

I think there is another old bug like the previous one you found, and it is about pictures in html files, again. Since the last version of calibre, most of times it works perfectly, but sometimes, I don't know why, there are no pictures ; maybe another vicious bug like the previous one...

Here is, enclosed, a zip file with an example.

Kind regards.

The urls for the images are invalid in that html file, opening it in firefox also does not show the images. For example, see:

<img src="Ukraine:%20la%20Suisse%20s%27attaque%20%C3%A0 %20l%27argent%20de%20la%20corruption%20apr%C3%A8s% 20l%27avoir%20abrit%C3%A9_fichiers/Felix2.jpg" alt="Felix Blitshteyn" title="Felix Blitshteyn">

The : character in the src has to be quoted.

Either the website is using invalid URLs or whatever tool you are using to download the html is generating the invalid URLs.
