Re: Plugin for changing html before displaying it

Hi,
well i don't really know if it would work, but maybe this is the beginning of an idea,
i guess the datasource is immutable, ie you can't replace the data that's being downloaded on the fly (am I wrong? if so, then change it there)
i know you can set a webview in an editing mode, therefore you can change it's structure once it's loaded.
So, maybe you could try altering the DOM tree once it's loaded, but I don't know if it is possible actually....
I would give a look at this and how one edits the html in a webview.

Regards.

Hi,

I would like to build a plug-in, that parses and changes a html page before WebKit displays it. In particular I would like to scan for keywords and change them to a hyperlink. This should work on any (well, most...) websites out in the wild. 

Is that possible at all with WebKit browsers?

Any tips on where to start reading for a steep learning curve? 
(I already read "Web Kit Plug-in Programming Topics" and had a look into "Web Kit Objective-C Programming Guide")
