The QWebSettings class provides an object to store the settings used by QWebPage and QWebFrame. More...
#include <QWebSettings>
This class was introduced in Qt 4.4.
The QWebSettings class provides an object to store the settings used by QWebPage and QWebFrame.
Each QWebPage object has its own QWebSettings object, which configures the settings for that page. If a setting is not configured, then it is looked up in the global settings object, which can be accessed using QWebSettings::globalSettings().
QWebSettings allows configuring font properties such as font size and font family, the location of a custom stylesheet, and generic attributes like java script, plugins, etc. The WebAttribute enum further describes this.
QWebSettings also configures global properties such as the web page memory cache and the web page icon database, local database storage and offline applications storage.
WebKit provides support for features specified in HTML 5 that improve the performance and capabilities of Web applications. These include client-side (offline) storage and the use of a Web application cache.
Client-side (offline) storage is an improvement over the use of cookies to store persistent data in Web applications. Applications can configure and enable the use of an offline storage database by calling the setOfflineStoragePath() with an appropriate file path, and can limit the quota for each application by calling setOfflineStorageDefaultQuota().
See also QWebPage::settings(), QWebView::settings(), and Browser.

Clears the icon database.
Returns the actual font family for the specified generic font family, which.
See also setFontFamily().
Returns the default font size for type.
See also setFontSize().
Returns the global settings object.
Any setting changed on the default object is automatically applied to all QWebPage instances where the particular setting is not overriden already.
Returns the path of the icon database or an empty string if the icon database is disabled.
See also setIconDatabasePath() and clearIconDatabase().
Returns the web site's icon for url.
If the web site does not specify an icon, or the icon is not in the database, a null QIcon is returned.
Note: The returned icon's size is arbitrary.
See also setIconDatabasePath().
Returns the maximum number of web pages that are kept in the memory cache.
See also setMaximumPagesInCache().
Returns the value of the default quota for new offline storage databases.
This function was introduced in Qt 4.5.
See also setOfflineStorageDefaultQuota().
Returns the path of the HTML5 offline storage or an empty string if the feature is disabled.
This function was introduced in Qt 4.5.
See also setOfflineStoragePath().
Resets the setting of attribute. This function has no effect on the global QWebSettings instance.
See also globalSettings().
Resets the actual font family to the default font family, specified by which.
This function has no effect on the global QWebSettings instance.
Resets the font size for type to the size specified in the global settings object.
This function has no effect on the global QWebSettings instance.
Enables or disables the specified attribute feature depending on the value of on.
Sets the actual font family to family for the specified generic family, which.
See also fontFamily().
Sets the font size for type to size.
See also fontSize().
Sets the path of the icon database to path. The icon database is used to store "favicons" associated with web sites.
path must point to an existing directory where the icons are stored.
Setting an empty path disables the icon database.
See also iconDatabasePath().
Sets the maximum number of pages to hold in the memory cache to pages.
See also maximumPagesInCache().
Specifies the capacities for the memory cache for dead objects such as stylesheets or scripts.
The cacheMinDeadCapacity specifies the minimum number of bytes that dead objects should consume when the cache is under pressure.
cacheMaxDead is the maximum number of bytes that dead objects should consume when the cache is not under pressure.
totalCapacity specifies the maximum number of bytes that the cache should consume overall.
The cache is enabled by default. Calling setObjectCacheCapacities(0, 0, 0) will disable the cache. Calling it with one non-zero enables it again.
Sets the value of the default quota for new offline storage databases to maximumSize.
This function was introduced in Qt 4.5.
See also offlineStorageDefaultQuota().
Sets the path for HTML5 offline storage to path.
path must point to an existing directory where the databases are stored.
Setting an empty path disables the feature.
This function was introduced in Qt 4.5.
See also offlineStoragePath().
Specifies the location of a user stylesheet to load with every web page.
The location can be a URL or a path on the local filesystem.
