Hi all,

i'm trying to load an image in my navbarPage as title, but when I load it, the html seems not find it...

I'm following this stackoverflow thread present, in order to add the image and the title to the navbarPage.

I added the images in the www folder where my shinyapp is stored, but i load it using the command shinyApp(myUI, myServer)

Here i report an example code:

    
myUI <- fluidPage(
  list(tags$head(HTML('<link rel="icon", href="iho.png", 
                                   type="image/png" />'))),
  div(style="padding: 1px 0px; width: '100%'",
      titlePanel(
        title="", windowTitle="mytitle"
      )
  ),
  
  navbarPage(title = div(img(src="int.png", height = 22, width = 100),"mytitle"),
                      tabPanel( #...
                               )
                     

  )
)


myServer <- function(input, output, session) {
##
  }

shinyApp(myUI, myServer)

Where i'm wrong?

Thank you all,

solved!

Organising the code in two separated files, ui.R and server.R and using the classical runApp function, the images start to be visualized!

You could do the same thing with a single app.R file, but you still need to call runApp(); simply printing the shinyApp() object will launch the app but Shiny won't know about the www directory. It's a bit unintuitive, sorry.

No problem,

I suppose it's one of the "superpower" that you lost using the shinyApp instead of runApp, as described in the Detail section of this article. ^^
