[[Category::HowTo]] Small snippet showing how to call two javascript functions, one without any param, and one with a QString param…
This is a simple html to test with
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function displaymessage(str)
{
alert(str);
}
function displayhello()
{
alert("Hello");
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form>
<input type="button" value="Click me!">
</form>
</body>
</html>
Now using the Designer, load this page to a QWebView in your mainwindow. And in the mainwindow.cpp
QWebFrame* frame = ui->webView->page()->mainFrame();
// the below line will call the javascript function that does not have any param
frame->evaluateJavaScript("displayhello()");
// now this is how to call the javascript function which takes a QString param
QString data("Qt is the Best!"); // can be some large data, say from a file
QString param = QString("displaymessage('%1')").arg(data); // FIXME: Does not work if "data" contains a quote character!
frame->evaluateJavaScript(param);
