Create a custom slot and connect it to:
void QTreeWidget::itemClicked(QTreeWidgetItem* item, int column) [signal]

In the slot, use QDesktopServices (new in Qt 4.2) to open the URL.

Btw, how is this related to Qt Designer?

To add to that

When you add items to the Tree. Have the items associatd to an Url using
QTreeViewItem::setData function

On item clicked you can retreive the url and use QDesktopServices or QTextBrowser for the display

Connect a slot showing the page to the QAbstractItemView::clicked ( const QModelIndex & index ) signal from your TreeView/Widget.

i had checked already not even giving error but these are not working
coding s like

Code:

---

void form1::showResult(QTreeWidgetItem * item, int column)
{
QString str,str1;
str=item->text(0);
 
if(str.compare("sub11")==0)
 
{
QUrl url("http://www.google.com");
}

---

its not working on selected event of sub11


so plz suggest me for coding in "if " part

Please don't start more than one thread on the same topic. Threads merged.

all signal n slots are working properly...even not giving an error but problem is still a problem
plz help me out to solve it....

i want a internet browser page on selection of "sub11"

plz help as soon as possible

Are you using Qt 4.2? Did you read about QDesktopServices which was already suggested in earlier posts?

If you are using an earlier version of Qt, try searching the forums. This subject has been discussed several times, like for example in this thread.

I suggest you take a look at QUrl docs and read what the class is meant to do. Trying random classes won't help you much...

Code:

---

str.compare("sub11")==0

And what is this? How about:

Code:

---

if(str=="sub11") ...

Just change the URL to point to the file you wish to open. QUrl::fromLocalFile() may be handy.
