Hi,

i am trying to display(render) a webpage in my view, but i can't get it working. I have done the following so far:

import org.eclipse.jface.viewers.TableViewer;
import org.eclipse.swt.SWT;
import org.eclipse.swt.browser.Browser;
import org.eclipse.swt.layout.GridLayout;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Composite;
import org.eclipse.ui.part.ViewPart;

public class SampleView extends ViewPart {

	private TableViewer viewer;
	private Browser browser;


	public void createPartControl(Composite parent) {
		GridLayout layout = new GridLayout(1, false);
		browser = new Browser(parent, SWT.NONE);
		parent.setLayout(layout);
		createViewer(parent);
	}

	private void createViewer(Composite parent) {
		viewer = new TableViewer(parent, SWT.H_SCROLL | SWT.V_SCROLL | SWT.BORDER);
		browser.setBounds(0, 0, 500, 200);
		browser.setUrl("google com");
		viewer.add(browser);

	}

	public void setFocus() {
		viewer.getControl().setFocus();
	}
}

The result can be seen in the following screenshot:
index.php/fa/7647/0/

- How can i get ride of the small rectangle that contains the text "Browser{}" ?
- Is it possible to set the browser window size to fit automatically to the current view's size?

Thanks in advance.

This works for me:

package tt.views;

import org.eclipse.swt.SWT;
import org.eclipse.swt.browser.Browser;
import org.eclipse.swt.layout.FillLayout;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Composite;
import org.eclipse.ui.part.ViewPart;

public class SampleView extends ViewPart {

public static final String ID = "tt.views.SampleView";

private Browser browser;

public SampleView() {
}

public void createPartControl(Composite parent) {
browser = new Browser(parent, SWT.NONE);
parent.setLayout(new FillLayout());
browser.setUrl("google.com");
}

public void setFocus() {
browser.setFocus();
}
}

Do You really need a TableViewer?

Regards
Mauro
