112 @return The url of the page.
117 @return The title of the page.
125 This control may be used to render web (HTML / CSS / javascript) documents.
126 Capabilities of the HTML renderer will depend upon the backed.
128 @c wxWEB_VIEW_BACKEND_IE uses the the Trident rendering engine, which
129 is also used by Internet Explorer. It is important to note that by default
130 it emulates Internet Explorer 7, this can be chaged with a registry

141 to get a resource. This event may be vetoed to prevent navigating to this
142 resource. Note that if the displayed HTML document has several frames, one
143 such event will be generated per frame.

160 Process a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_WEB_VIEW_NEWWINDOW event, generated when a new
161 window is created. This event may be vetoed to prevent a new window showing,
