A simple “naive” solution is to iterate the page’s QWebElements and set the “display” style to “none” on all element but the search box

Couldn’t you insert a style sheet for that instead?

Sure, that should be possible I think.

i think you should analyze the Html code inside using DOM and then take the piece you need to view. it’s not so simple.

You could probably create a widget wrapper over QWebPage that show only the geometry of the element.

For such a simple page, the idea of mario is way simpler and could work.

What about just loading http://search.yahoo.com/?

That would be to easy Volker :)

mario solution is interesting

Actually, I’ve done an app with filtering capabilities by settting the display style to none and it works great.

The app shows a web page containing a table with sport matches. I added filtering buttons to support filtering the table. I also remove some links from the page by settings the display style.

nice job dude! :)

@all: thanks all for the clues. I’ll try what mario & mohsen suggested.

I posted some examples of a few ways of doing this kind of webslicing a while back in my blog: http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/4086
