class HTMLViewer Linux MBS Linux Plugin 12.4 ❌ No ❌ No ✅ Yes ❌ No Desktop only
The class for a WebKit WebView on Linux.

With MBS Plugin 19.3 and Xojo 2018r2 and later, this plugin will try to load WebKit 2.0 (libwebkit2gtk-4.0.so.37) instead of WebKit 1.0 (libwebkitgtk-3.0.so).

Most functions still work for WebKit 1.x only. Let us know if you need something for WebKit 2.x.
This is an abstract class. You can't create an instance, but you can get one from various plugin functions.

Cache Model Constants

Constant Value Description
kCacheModelDocumentViewer 1 Cache in Document Viewer.
kCacheModelWebBrowser 2 Cache in Web Browser.

Load State Constants

Constant Value Description
kLoadCommitted 1 The first data chunk has arrived, meaning that the necessary transport requirements are stabilished, and the load is being performed.
kLoadFailed 4 This state means that some error occurred during the page load that prevented it from being completed. You can connect to the error event if you want to know precisely what kind of error occurred.
kLoadFinished 2 This state means that everything that was required to display the page has been loaded.
kLoadFirstVisuallyNonEmptyLayout 3 The first layout with actual visible content happened; one or more layouts may have happened before that caused nothing to be visible on the screen, because the data available at the time was not significant enough.
kLoadProvisional 0 No data has been received yet, empty structures have been allocated to perform the load; the load may still fail for transport issues such as not being able to resolve a name, or connect to a port.
