8 wxHtmlWindow is probably the only class you will directly use
9 unless you want to do something special (like adding new tag
10 handlers or MIME filters).
11
12 The purpose of this class is to display HTML pages (either local
13 file or downloaded via HTTP protocol) in a window. The width
14 of the window is constant - given in the constructor - and virtual height
15 is changed dynamically depending on page size.
16 Once the window is created you can set its content by calling
17 \helpref{SetPage(text)}{wxhtmlwindowsetpage} or
18 \helpref{LoadPage(filename)}{wxhtmlwindowloadpage}.

129
130 \func{virtual bool}{LoadPage}{\param{const wxString\& }{location}}
131
132 Unlike SetPage this function first loads HTML page from {\it location}
133 and then displays it. See example:
134
135 \begin{verbatim}
136 htmlwin -> SetPage("help/myproject/index.htm");
137 \end{verbatim}
138
139 \wxheading{Parameters}

150
151 This method is called when a mouse button is clicked inside wxHtmlWindow.

154 hypertext link.

157
158 \docparam{cell}{The cell inside which the mouse was clicked, always a simple
159 (i.e. non container) cell}
160
161 \docparam{x, y}{The logical coordinates of the click point}
162

171 \wxheading{Parameters}
172
173 \docparam{cell}{The cell inside which the mouse is currently, always a simple
174 (i.e. non container) cell}

184
185 Also see \helpref{wxHtmlLinkInfo}{wxhtmllinkinfo}.
186
187
188 \membersection{wxHtmlWindow::OnSetTitle}\label{wxhtmlwindowonsettitle}

194
195 \membersection{wxHtmlWindow::ReadCustomization}\label{wxhtmlwindowreadcustomization}
196
197 \func{virtual void}{ReadCustomization}{\param{wxConfigBase }{*cfg}, \param{wxString }{path = wxEmptyString}}
198
199 This reads custom settings from wxConfig. It uses the path 'path'
200 if given, otherwise it saves info into currently selected path.

205 \wxheading{Parameters}
206

212
213 \func{void}{SetBorders}{\param{int }{b}}
214

229 \wxheading{Parameters}
230
231 \docparam{normal\_face}{This is face name for normal (i.e. non-fixed) font.
232 It can be either empty string (then the default face is choosen) or
233 platform-specific face name. Examples are "helvetica" under Unix or
234 "Times New Roman" under Windows.}
235
236 \docparam{fixed\_face}{The same thing for fixed face ( <TT>..</TT> )}
237
238 \docparam{sizes}{This is an array of 7 items of {\it int} type.
239 The values represent size of font with HTML size from -2 to +4
240 ( <FONT SIZE=-2> to <FONT SIZE=+4> )}
241
242 \wxheading{Defaults}
243
244 Under wxGTK:
245
246 \begin{verbatim}
247 SetFonts("", "", {10, 12, 14, 16, 19, 24, 32});
248 \end{verbatim}
249
250 Under Windows:
251
252 \begin{verbatim}
253 SetFonts("", "", {7, 8, 10, 12, 16, 22, 30});
254 \end{verbatim}
255
256 Athough it seems different the fact is that the fonts are of approximately
257 same size under both platforms (due to wxMSW / wxGTK inconsistency)
258

260
261 \func{bool}{SetPage}{\param{const wxString\& }{source}}

264 It will display the {\it source}. See example:
265
266 \begin{verbatim}
267 htmlwin -> SetPage("<html><body>Hello, world!</body></html>");
268 \end{verbatim}
269
270 If you want to load a document from some location use
271 \helpref{LoadPage}{wxhtmlwindowloadpage} instead.
272
273 \wxheading{Parameters}
274
275 \docparam{source}{The HTML document source to be displayed.}
276
277 \wxheading{Return value}

283 \func{void}{SetRelatedFrame}{\param{wxFrame* }{frame}, \param{const wxString\& }{format}}
284
285 Sets the frame in which page title will be displayed. {\it format} is format of
286 frame title, e.g. "HtmlHelp : \%s". It must contain exactly one \%s. This
287 \%s is substituted with HTML page title.
288
289 \membersection{wxHtmlWindow::SetRelatedStatusBar}\label{wxhtmlwindowsetrelatedstatusbar}
290
291 \func{void}{SetRelatedStatusBar}{\param{int }{bar}}
292
293 {\bf After} calling \helpref{SetRelatedFrame}{wxhtmlwindowsetrelatedframe},
294 this sets statusbar slot where messages will be displayed.
295 (Default is -1 = no messages.)
296
297 \wxheading{Parameters}
298
299 \docparam{bar}{statusbar slot number (0..n)}
300
301

303
304 \func{virtual void}{WriteCustomization}{\param{wxConfigBase }{*cfg}, \param{wxString }{path = wxEmptyString}}
305
306 Saves custom settings into wxConfig. It uses the path 'path'
307 if given, otherwise it saves info into currently selected path.
308 Regardless of whether the path is given or not, the function creates sub-path
309 {\tt wxHtmlWindow}.
310
311 Saved values: all things set by SetFonts, SetBorders.
312
313 \wxheading{Parameters}
314
