WebKit is open source, so fire up your SVN client for release 4.0.3. In WebViewPrivate.h you will see this:
@interface WebView (WebPendingPublic) - (void)scheduleInRunLoop:(NSRunLoop *)runLoop forMode:(NSString *)mode; - (void)unscheduleFromRunLoop:(NSRunLoop *)runLoop forMode:(NSString *)mode; @end Which would seem to be exactly what you need. I think these in fact go back to version 3.1, but can't be bothered to check right now (4.0.3 is what I have checked out locally). Your choices: A) Use this API and make sure nothing will go drastically wrong should the WebKit team change the API before making it public B) Ship a custom version of WebKit that you know has these methods with your app (although it sounds like in your case this probably isn't feasible) Somebody will probably shout at me for mentioning "private" API, but WebKit is somewhat of a special case thanks to option B. Mind you, this sort of question probably would have been better on the WebKit list. Mike. On 18 Nov 2009, at 23:21, Leif Harrison wrote: > Is anyone out there using WebViews in modal panels?
