5First of all, you must include <wx/wxhtml.h>.
6
7Class \helpref{wxHtmlWindow}{wxhtmlwindow} (derived from wxScrolledWindow)
8is used to display HTML documents.
448af9a4 9It has two important methods: \helpref{LoadPage}{wxhtmlwindowloadpage}
704a4b75
VS
10and \helpref{SetPage}{wxhtmlwindowsetpage}.
11LoadPage loads and displays HTML file while SetPage displays directly the
12passed {\bf string}. See the example:
13
14\begin{verbatim}
15 mywin -> LoadPage("test.htm");
16 mywin -> SetPage("<html><body>"
17 "<h1>Error</h1>"
4215a438
VZ
18 "Some error occurred :-H)"
19 "</body></hmtl>");

26\wxheading{Setting up wxHtmlWindow}
27
28Because wxHtmlWindow is derived from wxScrolledWindow and not from
3980000c
RR
29wxFrame, it doesn't have visible frame. But the user usually wants to see
30the title of HTML page displayed somewhere and the frame's titlebar is
31the ideal place for it.
704a4b75 32
22d6efa8 33wxHtmlWindow provides 2 methods in order to handle this:
704a4b75
VS
34\helpref{SetRelatedFrame}{wxhtmlwindowsetrelatedframe} and
35\helpref{SetRelatedStatusBar}{wxhtmlwindowsetrelatedstatusbar}.
36See the example:
37
38\begin{verbatim}
39 html = new wxHtmlWindow(this);
40 html -> SetRelatedFrame(this, "HTML : %%s");
41 html -> SetRelatedStatusBar(0);
42\end{verbatim}
43

44The first command associates the HTML object with its parent frame
45(this points to wxFrame object there) and sets the format of the title.
704a4b75
VS
46Page title "Hello, world!" will be displayed as "HTML : Hello, world!"
47in this example.
48
49The second command sets which frame's status bar should be used to display
50browser's messages (such as "Loading..." or "Done" or hypertext links).
51
52\wxheading{Customizing wxHtmlWindow}
53
54You can customize wxHtmlWindow by setting font size, font face and
55borders (space between border of window and displayed HTML). Related functions:
56
448af9a4 57\begin{itemize}\itemsep=0pt
704a4b75
VS
58\item \helpref{SetFonts}{wxhtmlwindowsetfonts}
59\item \helpref{SetBorders}{wxhtmlwindowsetborders}
60\item \helpref{ReadCustomization}{wxhtmlwindowreadcustomization}
61\item \helpref{WriteCustomization}{wxhtmlwindowwritecustomization}
62\end{itemize}
63
64The last two functions are used to store user customization info wxConfig stuff
36edded9 65(for example in the registry under Windows, or in a dotfile under Unix).
