webview that displays a local html file?

Anonymous User

Hi all, I wonder if anyone could point me in the right direction...

I can successfully create a WebView object, and get it to load a url from the www. But the documentation specifically says: Note: The WebView does not support loading content through the Qt Resource system.

WebView QML Type | Qt WebView 5.9 

I am wanting to compose, view, load, edit and save an html file locally, but this suggests to me I can't do it using the WebView object.

I can read the html file as text, and load it with the loadHtml() method, but it looks like the 'baseUrl' it expects is an online resource, and I can't get it to display any resources (such as image files).

How can I interact with a local html file?

import QtWebView 1.1

App {

    id: app

    width: 500; height: 500

     WebView{

        id: mywebview

        anchors.fill: parent

    }

}

Check the Quick Report template. It supports loading of the webpage for help both local and remote.

Here is the location of the code that deals with loading local HTML files:
