10 @class wxHtmlWindow
11
12 wxHtmlWindow is probably the only class you will directly use unless you want
13 to do something special (like adding new tag handlers or MIME filters).
14
15 The purpose of this class is to display rich content pages (either local file or
16 downloaded via HTTP protocol) in a window based on a subset of the HTML standard.
17 The width of the window is constant - given in the constructor - and virtual height
18 is changed dynamically depending on page size.
19 Once the window is created you can set its content by calling SetPage() with raw HTML,
20 LoadPage() with a wxFileSystem location or LoadFile() with a filename.
21
22 @note
23 If you want complete HTML/CSS support as well as a Javascript engine, see instead
24 wxWebView.
25
26 @note
27 wxHtmlWindow uses the wxImage class for displaying images, as such you need to
28 initialize the handlers for any image formats you use before loading a page.
29 See ::wxInitAllImageHandlers and wxImage::AddHandler.
30
31 @beginStyleTable
32 @style{wxHW_SCROLLBAR_NEVER}
33 Never display scrollbars, not even when the page is larger than the
34 window.
35 @style{wxHW_SCROLLBAR_AUTO}
36 Display scrollbars only if page's size exceeds window's size.
37 @style{wxHW_NO_SELECTION}
38 Don't allow the user to select text.
