I have a test.html file like:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<a style="padding-right:5px" target="_blank" href="data/">Datadir</a>
</body>
</html>
the directory include test.html is like:
test.html
data\
a.txt
b.txt
and I use "file:///remote/us01home19/ktc/public_html/testLocalHref/test.html" and click on Datadir in firefox and chrome, the result is like:
and:
I write a pyside2 code to do the same thing, the code is like:
from PySide2 import QtCore, QtWidgets, QtWebEngineWidgets
import os
import sys
class CustomWebEnginePage(QtWebEngineWidgets.QWebEnginePage):
# Store second window.
external_window = None
def acceptNavigationRequest(self, url, _type, isMainFrame):
print(url, _type, isMainFrame)
if _type == QtWebEngineWidgets.QWebEnginePage.NavigationTypeLinkClicked:
if not self.external_window:
self.external_window = QtWebEngineWidgets.QWebEngineView()
self.external_window.setUrl(url)
self.external_window.show()
return False
return super().acceptNavigationRequest(url, _type, isMainFrame)
class MainWindow(QtWidgets.QMainWindow):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super(MainWindow, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
self.browser = QtWebEngineWidgets.QWebEngineView()
self.browser.setPage(CustomWebEnginePage(self))
# self.browser.setUrl(QtCore.QUrl("https://code.visualstudio.com"))
self.browser.setUrl(QtCore.QUrl("file:///remote/us01home19/ktc/public_html/testLocalHref/test.html"))
# self.browser.setUrl(QtCore.QUrl("file:///remote/tw_rnd1/ktc/prog/python/pyside2/WebEngine/data/aaa.ava.summary.html"))
#self.browser.setUrl(QtCore.QUrl("file:///remote/tw_rnd1/ktc/prog/python/pyside2/WebEngine/data/aaa_ava_corners/C_1"))
self.setCentralWidget(self.browser)
if __name__ == '__main__':
app = QtWidgets.QApplication(sys.argv)
window = MainWindow()
window.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
But execute the code, I get the result like:
but click on the Datadir, there is no response, even QWebEnginePage.acceptNavigationRequest is not triggered. Is there a way to make the QWebEngine behavior like Firefox and Chrome?
I have try to add print message in QWebEnginePage.acceptNavigationRequest function to catch the click dataDir information, but it seems there is no response for this.
python version:python-3.9.0, os version : "CentOS Linux 7", Qt Version : "Qt_5.15" python and Qt are custom build
I find the problem comes from html target="_blank" not work in QWebEnginePage, it can avoid by implementing class function createWindow in QtWebEngineWidgets like:
