QWebview does not load all pages?

[GCDX]

Hello,

I tried loading http://nusmods.com/timetable/sem-1 but it doesn't work if i load into my QWebview.
Even if i used this,
ui->webView->load(QUrl("http://www.google.com"));

and try to navigate to the webpage it also won't load?

Can someone explain the cause and solution to this?

@GCDX
both links you provided redirect to https, so i guess you are missing the OpenSSL libs.
But corresponding warnings should be printed to the console.

The google link works, and so do many links, it just so happen this one doesn't and if i try to use QWebview to google from there it still wont work. So i dont think its openSSL libraries?

@GCDX
so you are using QtWebkit right? (since you said you use QWebView)

Check if the are any errors during loading by inspecting the relevant signals of QWebView/QWebPage/QWebFrame.
Check javascript errors (subclass QWebPage and overload javaScriptConsoleMessage()) and assign your custom QWebPage sublass to your QWebView (via setPage())

@raven-worx I dont think there are errors at all during compiling! Could you elaborate on the how to check javascript errors or link me to documentation?

@GCDX
@raven-worx does not mean there will be any "compilation errors", he means check for run-time errors.

For, say, a JavaScript error he has already given you the documentation link http://doc.qt.io/archives/qt-5.5/qwebpage.html#javaScriptConsoleMessage. So you just sub-class QWebPage and override that virtual function to (say) qDebug() whatever its parameters are. For the QWebView etc. you go to http://doc.qt.io/archives/qt-5.5/qwebview.html and look at the Signals section, e.g. you want a slot for http://doc.qt.io/archives/qt-5.5/qwebview.html#loadFinished so that you can qDebug() << ok.
