100 class wxWebHistoryItem
106 wxWebHistoryItem(const wxString
& url
, const wxString

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

136 @event{EVT_WEB_VIEW_NAVIGATING(id, func)}
137 Process a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_WEB_VIEW_NAVIGATING event, generated before trying
138 to get a resource. This event may be vetoed to prevent navigating to this
139 resource. Note that if the displayed HTML document has several frames, one
140 such event will be generated per frame.
141 @event{EVT_WEB_VIEW_NAVIGATED(id, func)}
142 Process a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_WEB_VIEW_NAVIGATED event generated after it was
143 confirmed that a resource would be requested. This event may not be vetoed.

145 will be generated per frame.
146 @event{EVT_WEB_VIEW_LOADED(id, func)}
147 Process a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_WEB_VIEW_LOADED event generated when the document
148 is fully loaded and displayed. Note that if the displayed HTML document has
149 several frames, one such event will be generated per frame.

151 Process a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_WEB_VIEW_ERROR event generated when a navigation
153 The integer associated with this event will be a wxWebNavigationError item.

155 precise error message/code.
156 @event{EVT_WEB_VIEW_NEWWINDOW(id, func)}
157 Process a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_WEB_VIEW_NEWWINDOW event, generated when a new
158 window is created. You must handle this event if you want anything to
159 happen, for example to load the page in a new window or tab.
160 @event{EVT_WEB_VIEW_TITLE_CHANGED(id, func)}
161 Process a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_WEB_VIEW_TITLE_CHANGED event, generated when
162 the page title changes. Use GetString to get the title.
