23.1 Overview

HTMLview class derives from Area class and creates a widget which displays a HTML page either provided as raw data or as a file source stored locally or on a remote server. It also supports some browser features like a history of visited pages and the ability to step through this history.

On Windows and macOS this class uses an HTML control provided by the OS. On Linux this class requires WebKitGTK+ to be installed. Since this is not available on every system, there is also a separate RapaGUI version without this class and thus without a WebKitGTK+ dependency. On AmigaOS and compatibles this class requires the HTMLview.mcc extension.
