>> Dashboard, Mail, and many other OS X applications. WebKit's HTML and

>>
>> WebKitGTK+ is a community sub-project maintained mostly by GNOME and
>> GTK+ developers. It's implemented directly on top of GTK+, GLib and

>> WebKit has the following features:

>> - Enhanced Rich Text Editing.
>> - XML techologies support, including XPath, SVG and XSLTProcessor
>> (JavaScript API for XSLT).
>> - Netscape-style (NPAPI) plugins support.
>> - WebKit embedding API (provides clients with a public API for

>>
>> New in 1.1.x:
>> - HTTP auth with optional GNOME keyring storage.
>> - HTML5 media element support.
>> - Spell check support.
>>
>> WebKit supports the AT-SPI accessibility layer since version 1.0.x.
>> The GNOME accessibility team are working hard with WebKit team to

>> WebKit is accessible when GNOME 2.28 is released.
