void QWebFrame::addToJavaScriptWindowObject ( const QString & name, QObject * object )

Make object available under name from within the frame's JavaScript context. The object will be inserted as a child of the frame's window object.

Qt properties will be exposed as JavaScript properties and slots as JavaScript methods.

If you want to ensure that your QObjects remain accessible after loading a new URL, you should add them in a slot connected to the javaScriptWindowObjectCleared() signal.

If Javascript is not enabled for this page, then this method does nothing.

The object will never be explicitly deleted by QtWebKit.

void QWebFrame::addToJavaScriptWindowObject ( const QString & name, QObject * object, QScriptEngine::ValueOwnership own )

This is an overloaded function.

Make object available under name from within the frame's JavaScript context. The object will be inserted as a child of the frame's window object.

Qt properties will be exposed as JavaScript properties and slots as JavaScript methods.

If you want to ensure that your QObjects remain accessible after loading a new URL, you should add them in a slot connected to the javaScriptWindowObjectCleared() signal.

If Javascript is not enabled for this page, then this method does nothing.

The ownership of object is specified using own.

         <meta name="keywords" content="Qt, WebKit, Programming">
     </head>
     ...
 </html>

Given the above HTML code the metaData() function will return a map with two entries:

Key	Value
"description"	"This document is a tutorial about Qt development"
"keywords"	"Qt, WebKit, Programming"

This function returns a multi map to support multiple meta tags with the same attribute name.

This function was introduced in Qt 4.5.

void QWebFrame::setContent ( const QByteArray & data, const QString & mimeType = QString(), const QUrl & baseUrl = QUrl() )

Sets the content of this frame to the specified content data. If the mimeType argument is empty it is currently assumed that the content is HTML but in future versions we may introduce auto-detection.

External objects referenced in the content are located relative to baseUrl.

The data is loaded immediately; external objects are loaded asynchronously.

Note: This method will not affect session or global history for the frame.

See also toHtml() and setHtml().

void QWebFrame::setFocus ()

Gives keyboard input focus to this frame.

This function was introduced in Qt 4.6.

See also hasFocus().

void QWebFrame::setHtml ( const QString & html, const QUrl & baseUrl = QUrl() )

Sets the content of this frame to html. baseUrl is optional and used to resolve relative URLs in the document, such as referenced images or stylesheets.

The html is loaded immediately; external objects are loaded asynchronously.

If a script in the html runs longer than the default script timeout (currently 10 seconds), for example due to being blocked by a modal JavaScript alert dialog, this method will return as soon as possible after the timeout and any subsequent html will be loaded asynchronously.

When using this method WebKit assumes that external resources such as JavaScript programs or style sheets are encoded in UTF-8 unless otherwise specified. For example, the encoding of an external script can be specified through the charset attribute of the HTML script tag. It is also possible for the encoding to be specified by web server.

Note: This method will not affect session or global history for the frame.

See also toHtml() and setContent().

void QWebFrame::setScrollBarPolicy ( Qt::Orientation orientation, Qt::ScrollBarPolicy policy )

Sets the scrollbar policy for the scrollbar defined by orientation to policy.

See also scrollBarPolicy().

void QWebFrame::setScrollBarValue ( Qt::Orientation orientation, int value )

Sets the current value for the scrollbar with orientation orientation.

The scrollbar forces the value to be within the legal range: minimum <= value <= maximum.

Changing the value also updates the thumb position.

See also scrollBarValue(), scrollBarMinimum(), and scrollBarMaximum().
