  • 0

From Qt online help:

void QWebElement::setPlainText ( const QString & text )

Replaces the existing content of this
element with text. This is equivalent
to setting the HTML innerText
property.

My code:

QWebElement login = doc.findFirst("input[name=\"login\"]");
login.setPlainText("alibaba");
qDebug() << login.toPlainText();

And the output is “”.
Why I don’t see new value of login element?

    The problem is the input html element doesn’t have the closing tag so there’s no sense in using methods that operate (set some content) in a space between the opening and the closing tag…
    Besides, it’s value attribute that should be set and not the content of the input element 🙂
