I am running a Gtk+ instance of WebKit (with Curl as the HTTP backend). I was trying to figure out if there is an in-memory copy of the entire HTML document which is maintained while the document is getting downloaded and parsed. So far, my guess is that there is none. I can see that the HTMLTokenizer/HTMLParser gets called directly through the writeCallback() inside ResourceHandleManager.cpp - which means that tokenizing/parsing is getting done on the downloaded bytes as soon as they come in - with no buffering (of the entire document) going on.
This makes me wonder how browsers built on top of WebKit expose a "show source" feature to the user. Thanks!
