Assistant won't display short htmls. Why? Is that a bug?
Hi. Came across strange issue. I have html page, created .qhp, .qch, .qhcp and .qhc files as usuall, but Assistant haven't displayed that page when I cliced on corresponding leaf in tree structure of assistant. After further testing where the problem could be, I figured out, that the problem is in length of html page. This test page:
Code:

<html> <h1>Test</h1> Test </html>
will not get displayed. Neither this one:
Code:

<html> <h1>Test</h1> TestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTest TestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTest TestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTest TestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTest TestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTest TestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTest </html>
But after adding another character behind last "Test" the page is suddently displayed correctly. Anybody have some idea why is that? Is that a bug? I want to create really short help page telling what happens when user click Exit in my app.

What happens if you wrap the content in <body> tags?

Re: Assistant won't display short htmls. Why? Is that a bug?

The same thing. Only shortens page content which causes the error a bit

Code:

<html>
<body>
<h1>Test</h1>
TestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTest
TestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTest
TestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTest
TestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTest
TestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTest
TestTestTestTestTestT
</body>
</html>

not being displayed, +1 character displayed correctly

So? Anyone some advice? Or there's nothing to be done?

Still anyone? :( Besides of this strange behavior, I found very hard to make assistant do what I want to do.

Are you using the webkit backend for assistant or the text browser backend?

Neither one? Im using set of html pages on hard-drive loaded via <files></files> element in help.qhp file. Doing nothing programatically with anything so far, just calling assistant from terminal

You have to be using one of the two :) My question is about how your assistantclient library was compiled. See if it depends on webkit or not.

Does it work if you display the same content on QWebView?

Re: Assistant won't display short htmls. Why? Is that a bug?

Created:
Code:

QWebView view; QFile file("test.htm"); file.open(QIODevice::ReadOnly | QIODevice::Text); QString string = file.readAll(); file.close(); view.setHtml(string); view.show();
with test.htm looking:
Code:

<html> <body> <h1>Test</h1> T </body> </html>
Everything looks fine, QWebView displayed page correctly
