Running Web pages or URL using QUrlOperator

[ashukla]

The code is following;

#include<qapplication.h>
#include<qnetwork.h>
#include<qurloperator.h>
#include<qhttp.h>

int main( int argc, char ** argv )
{
QApplication a( argc, argv );
qInitNetworkProtocols();
QUrlOperator op( "http://www.trolltech.com" );
op.get( "index.html" );
a.connect( &a, SIGNAL( lastWindowClosed() ), &a, SLOT( quit() ) );
return a.exec();
}
It is not giving any error; but it is not displaying anything.
Help me please.

That's not gonna work. Q3UrlOperator::get just tries to download the file. It won't open it.

Do you want to open a web browser at that address? Then, in Qt 4 you have QDesktopServices:penUrl. It is static.

Dear Sir!
First I want to say thanks for sending response.
I want to open web information in Qt widgets. Is is possible. If posible plz. reply.

You could do it with QTextEdit::setHtml, but it is limited.
You could download the file html and set it in the text edit. But again, there is no fully HTML compliant widget.

What is the syntax for this?
I use Q3UrlOperator::get to download the file and how a way I set this content to QTextEdit.
I have no idea to do this.

I cann't understand what u want to say.
Plz explain.

After obtaining the data from the webpage, you have to display it on *something*. This could be a custom Widget or something ready made like QTextEdit or QTextBrowser. Unfortunately these provide limited html and CSS capabilities, so don't expect them to display a webpage, the way you are used to from firefox, ie or whatever webbrowser you use. Read the documentation of QTextBrowser and QTextEdit.

Dear Sir!
Any way is possible to run firefox within QWidget hiding with its popups (hiding title bar, Menu Bar etc.).

No, forget about that.
You might be able to run IE like this, but this requires the ActiveX module.

How a way I run url in MPlayer through Qt.

How a way I run url in MPlayer through Qt.

Take a look at QProcess. Just instantiate a QProcess with mplayer as command name and the path,url as the argument ...

[ashukla]

Is MPlayer can open the any HTML web Pages or only the media URL contents.
