    Building the QtWebKit module with debugging symbols is problematic on many platforms due to the size of the WebKit engine. Its recommended building the module only in release mode for embedded platforms. Currently QtWebKit will always be compiled without debugging symbols when using gcc. Take a look at the last lines of src/3rdparty/webkit/WebCore/WebCore.pro if you need to change this.
    More info here.

    Actually it dosent work .... the debugger only steps inside webkit up to 3 levels of functions... after which it behaves like if i pressed F5... ..... and the program continues to run...
    i have a fairly fast machine of dual core 3.0 ghz and 3gb ram...

    anyways.. i think i will try this on our good old visual studio ,,, may be it does not have that debugging issue... ... time to reboot...
