tkinterweb 3.2.0

HTML viewer for Tkinter

TkinterWeb

A fast and lightweight cross-platform webbrowser for Tkinter.

   

Overview

TkinterWeb offers bindings for the Tkhtml3 widget from http://tkhtml.tcl.tk/tkhtml.html, which enables loading HTML and CSS code into Tkinter applications.

Both Python 2 and Python 3, as well as MacOS, Windows, and Linux are supported.

   

Usage

TkinterWeb provides a webbrowser frame, a label widget capable of displaying styled HTML, and an HTML-based geometry manager.

TkinterWeb can be used in any Tkinter application. Here is an example:

from tkinterweb import HtmlFrame #import the HTML browser
try:
  import tkinter as tk #python3
except ImportError:
  import Tkinter as tk #python2

root = tk.Tk() #create the tkinter window
frame = HtmlFrame(root) #create HTML browser

def load_new_page(url):
  frame.load_website(url)
frame.on_link_click(load_new_page) #handle link clicks

frame.load_website("http://tkhtml.tcl.tk/tkhtml.html") #load a website
frame.pack(fill="both", expand=True) #attach the HtmlFrame widget to the parent window
root.mainloop()
