Doesn't appear to be available on either my Fedora or Debian system, so
I guess the webkitgtk tarball itself doesn't provide Gtk-Doc files and
they're generating the website docs through some other means.

Is this documentation available under devhelp, and if so, which package do I
need to install in order to see it ? (My devhelp provides me all my gtk
documentation, but it can't locate any webkitgtk help. :-( )

Correct that webkitgtk links to gtk2 and webkitgtk3 links to gtk3.
Whether the APIs are identical I can't say, but I imagine they're only
trivially different if not identical.

ok, thanks.

as a related query, I note that (in Fedora F15 repository) there is both a
webkitgtk and also webkitgtk3

What's the difference ?

I'm just guessing that webkitgtk3 if your application uses gtk3 and webkitgtk
otherwise. I am further guessing/hoping that the webkitgtk/webkitgtk3 api's are
identical, so moving from one to the other is just a matter of changing teh
includes/links.

Can anyone confirm this please?

Thank you, and all the best,

I would *strongly* recommend against moving to gtkhtml3.

It has no future.  It is no longer actively developed.  Evolution is the
last major user of this library, and work is already underway to move to
WebKit/GTK+, after which gtkhtml3 will be orphaned.

I recommend moving to WebKit/GTK+ instead.  It has excellent API
documentation here: http://webkitgtk.org/reference/index.html
