## Method Documentation

__init__ | ( | self, |
|  | QWidget | parent=0,
|  | bool | notifyClick=0
| ) |  |  |

Creates a new text browser.

Parameters:

  | parent | Parent of the widget.
  | notifyClick | true causes signals to be emitted.

contextMenuEvent | ( | self, |
|  | QContextMenuEvent | event
| ) |  |  |

Re-implemented for internal reasons. API not affected.

See QLineEdit.createPopupMenu().

bool isNotifyClick | ( |  | self ) |

Returns whether a click on a link should be handled internally or if a signal should be emitted.

keyPressEvent | ( | self, |
|  | QKeyEvent | event
| ) |  |  |

Makes sure Key_Escape is ignored

mailClick | ( | self, |
|  | QString | name,
|  | QString | address
| ) |  |  |

Emitted when a mail link has been activated and the widget has been configured to emit the signal.

Parameters:

  | name | The destination name. It is QString() at the moment.
  | address | The destination address.

Signal syntax:
  `QObject.connect(source, SIGNAL("mailClick(const QString&, const QString&)"), target_slot)`

setNotifyClick | ( | self, |
|  | bool | notifyClick
| ) |  |  |

Decide whether a click on a link should be handled internally or if a signal should be emitted.

Parameters:

  | notifyClick | true causes signals to be emitted.

setSource | ( | self, |
|  | QUrl | name
| ) |  |  |

Reimplemented to NOT set the source but to do the special handling. Do not call.

urlClick | ( | self, |
|  | QString | url
| ) |  |  |

Emitted if mailClick() is not emitted and the widget has been configured to emit the signal.

Parameters:

  | url | The destination address.

Signal syntax:
  `QObject.connect(source, SIGNAL("urlClick(const QString&)"), target_slot)`

wheelEvent | ( | self, |
|  | QWheelEvent | event
| ) |  |  |

Reimplemented to support Qt2 behavior (Ctrl-Wheel = fast scroll)
