Dave, 

Try inserting a line with the base tag before everything else:

<base href="url to your relative referenced images" />

This will cause the references to be relative to the base you define.

When you use revBrowserSet to set the htmltext property, the base url is no longer the same as when loaded directly from the server. So some more manipulation of the image src urls would be needed.

That's where I get strange looking characters.  If I then set the htmlText of the same image using RevBrowserSet, passing the return I got from RevBrowserGet(), the display turns weird.  I'll include, below, a little bit of the weird return I get from the RevBrowserGet() function after displaying the above URL.
