wxIEHTML

[LutherRevisited]

I know I asked this question before about wxhtml windows(thanks for the
answer), now I'm wanting links to open up in my default browser when I click on
them from a wxIE window. I realize that all I have to do is right-click on the
link and just open it in a separate window, but in the interests of
completeness, if anybody can tell me how this can be done I'd be grateful.

I don't think there's any way to intercept clicking links using the
embedded IE browser. You can check the source file for the module to
get an overview of what you can do.

In C++ you override the OnStartURL function. I imagine there is an
equivelent Python function.

Alternatively, if you have control over the html you can set
target=_blank for all your links.

At which point it would be best to use urllib to open the url, being
that you want the link to open up in the default browser.

maybe something like the following?
<pre>
import webbrowser
EVT_MSHTML_BEFORENAVIGATE2(self, -1, self.OnBeforeNavigate2)

def OnBeforeNavigate2(self, event): #IE event
url = event.GetText1()
webbrowser.open(url) #open in default browser
event.Veto() #don't open here
</pre>
