Hello. I have a question. How to custom hearders?

There is a bug in print_webpage method.
self.print_settings is not set. I think it has to be replaced by self.config.get("print_settings").
I currently fixed it quick&dirty by setting self.print_settings = self.config.get("print_settings") and changing some ifs

In order to trace the activity on the kiosk i use Click...
Seems like the browser has problems logging the visitors activity.
The Spy option seems to work and i can see in real time how the kiosk perform or the activity on screen but it is a bit pity that all this things cannot be logged.

Do you think that is a problem it can be solved?

The error in the subject line is preventing the documentation for Ext JS 4.2.1 (http://docs.sencha.com/extjs/4.2.1/) from loading...

I'm setting up a very simple kiosk on a pi and was wondering if wcg would work using the Linux framebuffer directly to output on an lcd. I can run x but if possible it would be nice to not have this overhead.

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "browser.py", line 346, in reset_browser
self.removeToolBar(self.navigation_bar)
AttributeError: 'MainWindow' object has no attribute 'navigation_bar'

wcgbrowser.yaml example

start_url: "http://www.sitename.com"

timeout_mode: "reset"
allow_plugins: True
fullscreen: True
navigation: False
allow_printing: True

page_unavailable_html: "examples/custom404.html"

network_down_html: "examples/custom_network_down.html"

In current version seems to be an error. 'whitelist' is not initialised.

In line 317-318 you set whitelist = [] only if config paramemter whitelist is True. So I added this to fix the error:

            else:
                whitelist = self.config.get("whitelist")

Hi Friend,

Thanks for give us wonderfull coding for browser (what i expect). i am new to python.

1. closed popup screen not reopen again.

qt.qpa.xcb: QXcbConnection: XCB error: 3 (BadWindow), sequence: 5413, resource id: 19837004, major code: 40 (TranslateCoords), minor code: 0

2. How to enable print window.
3. Need book mark in list view (open on click).
4. Custom url text box.

The qt5 branch contains code that, as of the latest commit, should be compatible with pyqt5, pyqt4, and pyside for qt4. It "WorksForMe"™, but I'm asking any other interested parties to test this branch against their own configurations and platforms.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Great project! I just used this browser to create a kios mode.

What i have so far is xorg without window manager and just this browser.
But with popups on a system without a window manager is of course a bit of a mess...

Is it possible to open _blank or _new a hrefs just like if they were normal links?
So they open up in the same window.

Hey Alan,

first of all great work and perfect for my kiosk!

i am not able to establish a connection via https to a certain website:
https://some.name.com/desktop?username=username&password=password&layout=default

(ssl certi is valid!)

when i gonna try to connect via http everything's just fine.

other sites with https://www.some.name.com are accessible

is there a similar browser for raspberry/raspbian?

On Windows, using the program as is with Qt5 works well, instead using Qt4 launch the exception:

usage: browser.py [-h] [-l START_URL] [-f] [-n] [-c CONFIG_FILE] [-d]
[--debug_log DEBUG_LOG] [-t TIMEOUT] [-i ICON_THEME]
[-z ZOOMFACTOR] [-p] [-u DEFAULT_USER] [-w DEFAULT_PASSWORD]
[-e] [-g] [--size WINDOW_SIZE] [--proxy_server PROXY_SERVER]
browser.py: error: unrecognized arguments: C:"mypath"/wcgbrowser/browser.py

using -c wcgbrowser.yaml don't change the situation. What's the matter?

Edit: it doesn't works with any optional flag or withuout flag

I'm massively refactoring the way configuration is parsed and passed around in the program. Instead of various options being loaded in here-and-there with defaults spread through the program, a single configuration object is generated from a method of the MainWindow class. Defaults for all config settings are specified in one big dict.

The config object is just passed around between MainWindow and other classes that need it, and accessed when needed.

The config file format shouldn't change at all, but obviously this could break things in subtle ways, so any help testing against this branch with your configs would be a wise investment on your parts. Thanks.

I'm on Ubuntu and I'm trying to run browser (I had first to run pip install pyyaml), but I get the following error:

Qt5 import error
Qt4 import error

How to fix it?

Hello,. How to change resolution browser?
