Visualforce Excel and Image Issue

Hi all,

We have a visualforce page renderred as an excel workbook:
<Row ss:Height="87">
    <Cell ss:Index="3" ss:StyleID="s87"><Data ss:Type="String"><img src="https://c.cs17.content.force.com/servlet/servlet.ImageServer?id=***********&oid=**********&lastMod=1435054046000"/></Data></Cell>
</Row>

But the image is not displaying. We have tried multiple options but cannot get the image to display.

Any ideas what else we could try?

Thanks,
Rudi

VisualForce to Excel: images not displayed

Hi, Guys.

I'm trying to create a VF-page which is opened as Excel file. I didn't meet any problems with text, tables, CSS-styles, but I can't insert images into the document. Images are not displayed (I can see their borders only) in Excel editor.
Let me provide simple test code of my VisualForce page:

<apex:page controller="TEST_ExcelReportController" standardStylesheets="false" sidebar="false"
  showHeader="false" showChat="false" contentType="application/vnd.ms-excel#Test_ExcelReport.xls">
    <table>
        <tr>
            <td>
                <apex:image url="http://icons.iconarchive.com/icons/benjigarner/softdimension/256/Excel-icon.png"/>
            </td>
            <td>
                <img src="http://images.google.com/intl/en_ALL/images/logos/images_logo_lg.gif"/>
            </td>
        </tr>
    </table>
</apex:page>


Does anybody know how we can correctly insert images in Excel-files?
