Hi Peter, I think you should say "User Agent String" in the title and maybe in the first paragraph say "User Agent (UA) string", so that it's not quite as cryptic. The inline URLs are a bit ugly, perhaps "some changes" could be turned into a link to the tracking bug and "similar changes in Firefo

Looks ok. Usually we stay away from mentioning changes in or plans for specific WebKit-based browsers rather than WebKit itself on the blog, when possible, so I suggest replacing the last paragraph with a general encouragement to help find compatibility problems with these changes. - Maciej

In addition to your comments, I also find the gyp syntax somewhat unpleasant. In particular, in .gypi lists of files to compile, ever entry is double-quoted, comma-separated, line-separated, and then grouped in multiple levels of braces. This is noisier than any of our current formats except th

Hi Brent, I definitely agree that gyp is rather undocumented and kind of hard to use. It's nowhere near the level of documentation of CMake, let alone Xcode or GNU makefiles. Hopefully we can fix this in the near future. That said, I'd be kind of surprised if cmake was already installed on your s

[webkit-dev] DOM rendering using Qt webkit bridge

2011-03-25 Thread Chandan Apsangi
Hi, Is it possible to display a QWidget on DOM ( tag) using QtWebkit Bridge? For this we do not want to override QWebView's paint method. This is similar to NPAPI'S rendering, but utilizing QtWebkit Bridge. Also, as per QtWebkit Bridge documentation, we can get DOM objects as QWebElement in C++.
