I used to make Ajax requests to read files from a server. But now, I would like Qt to read a file from the local disk and send its content to my web app. I think I need Qt to catch Ajax requests from the web app and return the file content as the Ajax request result. The problem is I don't know how to do. Use the load HTMLString(: base URL:) method to begin loading local HTML files or the load(:) method to begin loading web content. Use the stop Loading method to stop loading, and the is Loading property to find out if a web view is in the process of loading.
Qwebview Load Local File Javascript
I am trying to load and show some local urls with QWebEngineView which are based on QtHelp in my application, but it is not possible. I have just managed to load either the HTML code or the text inside it thanks to a QHelpEnginem, but it is not possible to load the images, and the linking inside it does not work either. The urls could be previously displayed with QTextBrowser, but since I want to add some more advanced functionality to the html I would like to change to the QWebEngineView.Does anybody know how to do this, or if it is possible at all? Is it necessary to modify the base url?
Qwebview Load Local File Tax
SetHtml ( html )The setHtml method can take an optional second argument, the base URL of the document - the URL based on which any relative links contained in the document are resolved. Other QWebView Content TypesA QWebView's content does not have to be HTML; if you have other browser-viewable content, you can put it in a QWebView using its setContent method, which accepts the content and optionally its MIME type and a base URL. If the MIME type is omitted, it will be assumed that it is text/html; no autodetection of MIME types has been implemented yet, though it is at least tentatively planned. I've not managed to find a list of MIME types that can be handled by the QWebView, but here is an example that works with a PNG file.
