[Gambas-user] Webview + images Kubuntu 9 / Kubuntu 10

[richard terry]

I'm having a problem with images being shown in the webview control in kubuntu 
10. I run 9 on my laptop, no problems.

Its not my program, as I modified the code in the webrowser example to just 
show the contents of a html file > all the text is ok, but not the pictures. 
The same file renders ok in Konqueror and Firefox.

Ditto if you save a page in firefox as a file, and then try and reload this into 
webview > no images.

This code:
<IMG SRC="/home/richard/webcam_shot.png" NAME="graphics1" ALIGN=LEFT WIDTH=320 
HEIGHT=240 BORDER=0>, just shows an empty box on the screen where the image 
should be.

I've also noticed that on Kubuntu 9 or 10, rendering of for example underlined 
text is erratic.

I wondered if anyone else has noticed this, or can replicate the problem.

This is a major show stopper for me, as I use the webbrowser to display my 
clinical notes, and this issue only came to light when I put a new Dev 
environement on an office machine at work.
