Qt WebKit: Virtual Keyboard
March 16, 2009 Matteo Bertozzi | Filed Under Qt4 | 1 CommentThe Development of “Moko Touch” (My iPhone Clone for OpenMoko) goes on, And I’m writing a Mobile WebKit Browser. But The Phone need a Virtual Keyboard, and I Need to handle the WebKit forms. Internal WebKit/VirtualKeyboard of QtExtended doesn’t handle password forms… So, here an example of How to Add a Virtual Keyboard to your QWebView.
Usage is easy, load your web page click on a Editable form and the keyboard will magically appear, click out of a form and keyboard will magically disappear 
The code use a lot of JavaScript to handle the form click and focused out, and I don’t like it! So, If you’ve suggestions on how to implement it differently, post a comment or send me a mail! Thanks.
The Source Code is Available here: QtWebKit Virtual Keyboard Source Code.
Great post! Is there any way to do this generally (like write a Qt-driven virtual keyboard that works with any app)? That would be great!
Again, awesome stuff!
