A \e{WebEngineView} component may share the screen with other QML components or encompass the full screen as specified within the QML application. It allows an application to load pages into the WebEngineView, either by URL or with an HTML string, and navigate within session history. By default, links to different pages load within the same WebEngineView, but applications may intercept requests to delegate links to other functions. The following sample QML application loads a web page, responds to session history context, and intercepts requests for external links. It also makes use of \l ScrollView from \l {Qt Quick Controls} to add scroll bars for the content area. \code import QtQuick 2.0 import QtQuick.Controls 1.0 import QtWebEngine 1.0 ScrollView { width: 1280 height: 720 WebEngineView { id: webview url: "http://qt-project.org" anchors.fill: parent onNavigationRequested: { // detect URL scheme prefix, most likely an external link var schemaRE = /^\w+:/; if (schemaRE.test(request.url)) { request.action = WebEngineView.AcceptRequest; } else { request.action = WebEngineView.IgnoreRequest; // delegate request.url here } } } } \endcode \section1 Examples There are several Qt WebEngine examples located in the \l{Qt WebEngine Examples} page. */ /*! \qmltype WebEngineView \instantiates QQuickWebEngineView \inqmlmodule QtWebEngine 1.0 \brief A WebEngineView renders web content within a QML application */ /*! \qmlmethod void WebEngineView::goBack() Go backward within the browser's session history, if possible.

(This method offers a lower-level alternative to the \c{url} property, which references HTML pages via URL.) External objects such as stylesheets or images referenced in the HTML document are located relative to \a baseUrl. For example if provided \a html was originally retrieved from \c http://www.example.com/documents/overview.html and that was the base url, then an image referenced with the relative url \c diagram.png would be looked for at \c{http://www.example.com/documents/diagram.png}. If an \a unreachableUrl is passed it is used as the url for the loaded content. This is typically used to display error pages for a failed load. \sa WebEngineView::url */ /*! \qmlsignal WebEngineView::onLoadingChanged(loadRequest) Occurs when any page load begins, ends, or fails. Various read-only parameters are available on the \a loadRequest: \list \li \c{url}: the location of the resource that is loading. \li \c{status}: Reflects one of three load states: \c{LoadStartedStatus}, \c{LoadSucceededStatus}, or \c{LoadFailedStatus}. See \c{WebEngineView::LoadStatus}. \li \c{errorString}: description of load error. \li \c{errorCode}: HTTP error code. \li \c{errorDomain}: high-level error types, one of \c{NetworkErrorDomain}, \c{HttpErrorDomain}, \c{InternalErrorDomain}, \c{DownloadErrorDomain}, or \c{NoErrorDomain}.

(May also occur in touch interfaces for \c{mouseover} events that are not cancelled with \c{preventDefault()}.) The \a{hoveredUrl} provides the link's location, and the \a{hoveredTitle} is any avalable link text. */ /*! \qmlsignal WebEngineView::onNavigationRequested(request) Occurs for various kinds of navigation. If the application listens for this signal, it must set the \c{request.action} to either of the following \l{WebEngineView::NavigationRequestAction} enum values: \list \li \c{AcceptRequest}: Allow navigation to external pages within the web view. This represents the default behavior when no listener is active. \li \c{IgnoreRequest}: Suppress navigation to new pages within the web view. (The listener may then delegate navigation externally to the browser application.) \endlist The \a{request} also provides the following read-only values: \list \li \c{url}: The location of the requested page. \li \c{navigationType}: contextual information, one of \c{LinkClickedNavigation}, \c{BackForwardNavigation}, \c{ReloadNavigation}, \c{FormSubmittedNavigation}, \c{FormResubmittedNavigation}, or \c{OtherNavigation} enum values.
