dtRdr::HTMLWidget - Generic HTML widget interface
use dtRdr::HTMLWidget;
Provides a browser-independent widget. Uses a platform-specific adapter (shim), or the basic WxHTML widget if that fails.
Constructor / Factory method.
Create and return a new HTML rendering widget.
Base classes may inherit this.
Calling classes should call this (do not call the base class constructor directly.)
my @wx_args = ( # from http://www.wxwindows.org/manuals/2.6.3/wx_wxhtmlwindow.html $parent, # wxWindow *parent, $id, # wxWindowID id = -1, $pos, # const wxPoint& pos = wxDefaultPosition, $size, # const wxSize& size = wxDefaultSize, $style, # long style = wxHW_DEFAULT_STYLE, $name, # const wxString& name = "htmlWindow" ); $widget = dtRdr::HTMLWidget->new(\@wx_args, \%opts);
ASIDE: this is the old interface:
$widget = dtRdr::HTMLWidget->new($parent, $id, $position, $size, $style)
Returns the base class of the widget. Subclass must override this.
$widget->base;
Initialization callback.
$widget->init($parent, url_handler => $handler);
Render the HTML in the widget.
$bool = $widget->render_HTML($html, $data_handle);
$data_handle must respond to requests for related URIs. Note that the URIs may have a dotReader specific prefix, such as book:.
$data_handle->get_member_string($relative_uri)
Grabs the widget's internal state variables, runs $subref, and resets the state variables.
$hw->reset_wrap($subref);
$html = $hw->filter_HTML($html, $datahandle);
$widget->allow_copy($bool)
Enable or disable OS copy-to-clipboard functionality
These are the callbacks that the widget shims must implement. In all cases, registering a callback for a widget returns the previously registered callback, on the off-chance that your code's doing a temporary override of the callback.
$old_callback = $widget->register_get_file(&callback) This is the function called when the widget needs to fetch a file that's embedded within a webpage. (This is for E<lt>imgE<gt> tag fetches and suchlike things)
$bool = $widget->load_in_progress;
Returns true if the widget is currently fetching information or working on rendering the HTML contents, false if it is not.
callback implement in html shim $position = $widget->get_cursor_pos(); Returns the current vertical scroll bar position for the HTML widget
callback implement in html shim $widget->set_scroll_pos(200); Sets the current vertical scroll bar position for the HTML widget
callback implement in html shim scroll_page_down(); scrolls the browser widget down 1 page. equivilent to [Page Down] Returns 1 if successfull or 0 if it can't scroll
callback implement in html shim scroll_page_up(); scrolls the browser widget down 1 page. equivilent to [Page Up] Returns 1 if successfull or 0 if it can't scroll
callback implement in html shim scroll_page_bottom scrolls the browser to the bottom of the page
callback implement in html shim Decreases the font size $widget->increase_font
callback implement in html shim Decreases the font size $widget->decrease_font
$old_callback = $widget->register_url_changed(&callback) This is the callback that's called when the browser pane is about to change to a new page because someone clicked on a link.
$old_callback = $widget->register_form_post(&callback) This is the callback that's called when the browser pane does a form POST request.
$old_callback = $widget->register_form_get(&callback) This is the callback that's called when the browser pane does a form GET request.
Navigates to the next state in history
Navigates to the previous state in history
Print the current page
Returns selected text my $string = $hw->get_selection;
my $html = $hw->get_selection_as_html;
Returns ($pre, $str, $post) where pre and post text are $context_length or less if the selected text is near the begining or end of the document my ($pre, $str, $post) = $hw->get_selection_context($context_length);
