If I understand well, you need a function to know the dimension of the 
displayed HTML text. This is a problem in Qt :-)

You can try to put your text in a TextView, and use the TextWidth and 
TextHeight properties. I'm not sure that it works in every case, because 
these values seems to be calculated by Qt the later possible, i.e. when the 
TextView had been displayed.
