I use pyuic4 to create GUI and create a thread that do hard work, when that thread done, it append the result to textbrowser.
Problem is:
When I enter some text into “HOST or URL”, clicked to button “Do check”, it prints out “this is text” once. But when I change text from URL, press that button again, it print twice, and they increase each time later. The log said that signal only emit once but slot function is called many time. I dont know what i’m missing. Can anyone suggest a solution to this?
Thank you for any help you can provide
this is my main.py

Solved this, just move
to inside method
