QML webview unable to load from html property or file:// URL

I figured I'd post here before reporting a bug - seeing as how someone may have some more insight into this.

Running the following (be it from Python or qmlviewer directly) works great on both my desktop and my N900:

Code:

import Qt 4.7

import QtWebKit 1.0



Rectangle{

        WebView {

            id: webView

            url: "http://www.google.co.za"

            width: 800

            height: 480

            //html:  "<html><body>I LIKE PIE<br><br><br>PIEPIEPIE!</body></html>"

        }

    }

However - the following ONLY seems to work on my desktop:

Code:

import Qt 4.7

import QtWebKit 1.0



Rectangle{

        WebView {

            id: webView

            //url: "http://www.google.co.za"

            width: 800

            height: 480

            html:  "<html><body>I LIKE PIE<br><br><br>PIEPIEPIE!</body></html>"

        }

    }

and ditto for

Code:

import Qt 4.7

import QtWebKit 1.0



Rectangle{

        WebView {

            id: webView

            url: "file:///tmp/test.html"

            width: 800

            height: 480

            //html:  "<html><body>I LIKE PIE<br><br><br>PIEPIEPIE!</body></html>"

        }

    }

It seems as if the WebView on the N900 only works when its loading something from the internet?

Re: QML webview unable to load from html property or file:// URL

Setting the HTML worked for me (in the QMLViewer), but I needed to insert a <font color='white'> tag:

Code:

import QtQuick 1.0

import QtWebKit 1.0



WebView {



    width: 800

    height: 480

    html : "<html><body><font color='white'>I like pie<br><br><br>piepiepie!</font></body></html>"

}

I think the problem is that you have not set the width and height properties of the rectangle, so it defaults to 0 * 0. You should set the rectangle to 800 * 480, and use anchors.fill: parent for the webView.

That seems so obvious - yet I would've never have gotten it... I guess because in QML most things defaulted to white, I figured the webview would've done the same! Haha, I should go rest for a bit...

Many thanks :)
