QTreeWidget and QTextBrowser working together

[Santosh Reddy]

i tried setting qstring data to the qtreewidgetitems and iterating through the items and if the data == the qurl passed from anchorclicked then select the qtreewidgetitem but i couldnt get that to work.

What is going wrong when you do this, is the search triggered, if triggered does it give no results?

i was setting the data to the "filename.html" and the href link from an html page would be the same but the qurl contains the entire path, which can be different for everybody's computer, so we dont want this. I suppose I could try and take only the qurl text after the last "/" but this seems to be getting more finicky than it needs to be. i thought there would be a better or simpler solution since i have seen this type of thing done before.

got it working. I set QString data to each QTreeWidgetItem like I said. (the filename.html) then when i iterated the items if the string.contains(newPage) then setSelected(true) else setSelected(false) and it works. Have to be careful though, because for some reason, the items I hadnt set the data yet would also get selected.
