Integrated Browser

TextEdits can display complex html data, but cannot act as a real browser. With styleAttribute imageContainerType Image style attribute set to "browser", your image container becomes a browser.

Instead of setting an image name, you can set a URL.

Example

This figure shows a screen shot of a browser image container.

Important: This feature uses the current WebKit Open Source project; we use the version provided with Qt and we've no control over it. The aim is strictly to be able to display some HTML/Rich Text, not the most complicated pages of the web. Indeed, this feature comes with limitations, such as no Java™ support. We expect the version to be better supported by Qt in the future.
