At the same time Web - content can be enhanced with native controls. - - QtWebKit provides facilities for rendering of HyperText Markup Language - (HTML), Extensible HyperText Markup Language (XHTML) and Scalable Vector - Graphics (SVG) documents, styled using Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) and - scripted with JavaScript. - - A bridge between the JavaScript execution environment and the Qt object - model makes it possible for custom QObjects to be scripted. Integration - with the Qt networking module enables Web pages to be transparently loaded - from Web servers, the local file system or even the Qt resource system. - - In addition to providing pure rendering features, HTML documents can be - made fully editable to the user through the use of the \c{contenteditable} - attribute on HTML elements. - - QtWebKit is based on the Open Source WebKit engine. More information about - WebKit itself can be found on the \l{WebKit Open Source Project} Web site. - - The QtWebKit module is part of the \l{Qt Full Framework Edition}, and the - \l{Open Source Versions of Qt}. - - \note Building the QtWebKit module with debugging symbols is problematic - on many platforms due to the size of the WebKit engine. We recommend - building the module in release mode only for embedded platforms. - - \note Web site icons, also known as "FavIcons", are currently not supported - on Windows. We plan to address this in a future release. - - \note WebKit has certain minimum requirements that must be met on - Embedded Linux systems. See the \l{Qt for Embedded Linux Requirements} - document for more information. - - Topics: - - \tableofcontents - - \section1 Configuring the Build Process - - Applications that use QtWebKit's classes need to be configured to be built - against the QtWebKit module. The following declaration in a \c qmake - project file ensures that an application is compiled and linked - appropriately: - - \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_qtwebkit.qdoc 0 - - This line is necessary because only the QtCore and QtGui modules are used - in the default build process. - - To include the definitions of the module's classes, use the following - directive: - - \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_qtwebkit.qdoc 1 - - \section1 Architecture - - The easiest way to render content is through the QWebView class. As a - widget it can be embedded into your forms or a graphics view, and it - provides convenience functions for downloading and rendering web sites. - - \snippet snippets/webkit/simple/main.cpp Using QWebView - - QWebView acts as a view onto Web pages, each of which is represented by an - instance of the QWebPage class. QWebPage provides access to the document - structure in a page, describing features such as frames, the navigation - history, and the undo/redo stack for editable content. - - HTML documents can be nested using frames in a frameset. An individual - frame in HTML is represented using the QWebFrame class. It includes the - bridge to the JavaScript window object and can be painted using QPainter. - Each QWebPage has one QWebFrame object as its main frame. - - Individual browser features, defaults and other settings can be configured - through the QWebSettings class. It is possible to provide defaults for all - QWebPage instances through the default settings. Individual attributes - can be overidden by the page specific settings object. - - \section1 Netscape Plugin Support - - Since WebKit supports the Netscape Plugin API, Qt applications can display - Web pages that embed common plugins, as long as the user has the appropriate - binary files for those plugins installed. - - The following locations are searched for plugins: - - \table - \header \o Linux/Unix \o Windows - \row \o{1,3} - \list - \o \c{.mozilla/plugins} in the user's home directory - \o \c{.netscape/plugins} in the user's home directory - \o System locations, such as - \list - \o \c{/usr/lib/browser/plugins} - \o \c{/usr/local/lib/mozilla/plugins} - \o \c{/usr/lib/firefox/plugins} - \o \c{/usr/lib64/browser-plugins} - \o \c{/usr/lib/browser-plugins} - \o \c{/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins} - \o \c{/usr/local/netscape/plugins} - \o \c{/opt/mozilla/plugins} - \o \c{/opt/mozilla/lib/plugins} - \o \c{/opt/netscape/plugins} - \o \c{/opt/netscape/communicator/plugins} - \o \c{/usr/lib/netscape/plugins} - \o \c{/usr/lib/netscape/plugins-libc5} - \o \c{/usr/lib/netscape/plugins-libc6} - \o \c{/usr/lib64/netscape/plugins} - \o \c{/usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins} - \endlist - \o Locations specified by environment variables: - \list - \o \c{$MOZILLA_HOME/plugins} - \o \c{$MOZ_PLUGIN_PATH} - \o \c{$QTWEBKIT_PLUGIN_PATH} - \endlist - \endlist - - \o - \list - \o The user's \c{Application Data\Mozilla\plugins} directory - \o Standard system locations of plugins for Quicktime, Flash, etc. - \endlist - - \row - \raw HTML - <th class="qt-style">Mac OS X</th> - \endraw - \row - \o - \list - \o \c{Library/Internet Plug-Ins} in the user's home directory - \o The system \c{/Library/Internet Plug-Ins} directory - \endlist - \endtable - - \section1 License Information - - This is a snapshot of the Qt port of WebKit.
