Methods inherited from GObject (43)

Please see GObject for a full list of methods.

Properties

WebKit2.Settings:allow-file-access-from-file-urls

Whether file access is allowed from file URLs. By default, when something is loaded in a WebKitWebView using a file URI, cross origin requests to other file resources are not allowed. This setting allows you to change that behaviour, so that it would be possible to do a XMLHttpRequest of a local file, for example.

since: 2.10

WebKit2.Settings:allow-modal-dialogs

Determine whether it’s allowed to create and run modal dialogs from a WebKitWebView through JavaScript with window.showModalDialog. If it’s set to FALSE, the associated WebKitWebView won’t be able to create new modal dialogs, so not even the WebKitWebView::create signal will be emitted.

unstable since: 4.1

WebKit2.Settings:allow-top-navigation-to-data-urls

Whether or not the top frame is allowed to navigate to data URLs. It is disabled by default due to the risk it poses when loading untrusted URLs, with data URLs being used in scamming and phishing attacks. In contrast, a scenario where it could be enabled could be an app that embeds a WebView and you have control of the pages being show instead of a generic browser.

since: 2.28

WebKit2.Settings:allow-universal-access-from-file-urls

Whether or not JavaScript running in the context of a file scheme URL should be allowed to access content from any origin. By default, when something is loaded in a WebKitWebView using a file scheme URL, access to the local file system and arbitrary local storage is not allowed. This setting allows you to change that behaviour, so that it would be possible to use local storage, for example.

since: 2.14

WebKit2.Settings:auto-load-images

Determines whether images should be automatically loaded or not. On devices where network bandwidth is of concern, it might be useful to turn this property off.

unstable since: 4.1

WebKit2.Settings:enable-site-specific-quirks

Whether to turn on site-specific quirks. Turning this on will tell WebKit to use some site-specific workarounds for better web compatibility. For example, older versions of MediaWiki will incorrectly send to WebKit a CSS file with KHTML workarounds. By turning on site-specific quirks, WebKit will special-case this and other cases to make some specific sites work.

unstable since: 4.1

WebKit2.Settings:enable-smooth-scrolling

Enable or disable smooth scrolling.

unstable since: 4.1

WebKit2.Settings:enable-spatial-navigation

For example, if an user presses the Right key, heuristics determine whether there is an element they might be trying to reach towards the right, and if there are multiple elements, which element they probably wants.

since: 2.4
