unable to click the hyperlink in textedit

[wysota]

now i cant insert the baseUrl into the <a href .......> tag ???

Why not?

QString link = QString("<a href=\"%1\">%1</a>").arg(baseUrl);

QString link = QString("<a href=\"%1\">%1</a>").arg(baseUrl);

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode

ya. its working now. But i got a NEW problem now. after inserting the link in the TextEdit, the text which i am typing now is looking like a hyperlink. i have inserted a link lik www.google.com , whatever the text am typing after that it is like Hyperlink. even i tried a lot with Qtextcursor.

Hey what's up with you? Please do not start multiple threads about the same topic, and I told you days ago to use HTML...

And as to your new problem, you probably didn't close the a tag correct. Please show us the code.

Sorry for posting multiple threads


here is the code

bool ok;
    QString baseUrl= QInputDialog::getText(this, tr("URL"),tr("Link:"), QLineEdit::Normal, "", &ok);
    if (ok && !baseUrl.isEmpty())
    {
 
    QTextCursor cursor = ui->textEdit->textCursor();
    //int i=cursor.position();
    //qDebug("%d",i);
    QString link = QString("<a href=\"%1\">%1</a>").arg(baseUrl);
 
    cursor.insertHtml(link);

bool ok;
    QString baseUrl= QInputDialog::getText(this, tr("URL"),tr("Link:"), QLineEdit::Normal, "", &ok);
    if (ok && !baseUrl.isEmpty())
    {

    QTextCursor cursor = ui->textEdit->textCursor();
    //int i=cursor.position();
    //qDebug("%d",i);
    QString link = QString("<a href=\"%1\">%1</a>").arg(baseUrl);

    cursor.insertHtml(link);

Whatever i am typing after inserting url , all the texts are becoming as hyperlink.

Make sure the cursor is positioned after the link is closed. For example insert a space after closing the "a" tag. For more advanced things you'll have to use the text document and text cursor api. Bottom line is you need to make sure the current text char format is not the one associated with the link. There are many one that are likely to make it work.
