Load webview url
-
Newbie here. Why won't this load? I have a webview placed in the UI.
import ui
w1 = ui.WebView('webview1')
w1.load_url('http://www.yahoo.com') -
You have to add the WebView to a View as a subview and present it.
w1 = ui.WebView('webview1')w1.load_url('http://www.yahoo.com')my_view = ui.View()my_view.add_subview(w1)my_view.present() -
You can also directly present the WebView:
import ui w1 = ui.WebView('webview1') w1.load_url('http://www.yahoo.com') w1.present() -
Thank you all very much. The web view works good, especially with CCC's suggestion. However the results are not as expected. These above examples creates a pop up web view which is not intended. I have a web view library object placed in the .pyui editor. It is named webview1. How do I open a url in this little web view and not the pop up full screen web view?
-
w1.present('sheet')
-
Hmmm
w1.present('sheet')
and
w1.present( )
both identically open the sheet web view. Neither open the webview I placed in the .pyui editor from the library (webview1).
-
import ui view = ui.load_view() w1 = view['webview1'] w1.load_url('http://www.yahoo.com') view.present() -
Works like a charm! Thank you!!!!!
