Hi Dont really know for which platform/port of webkit u want to do this. If its a gtk port u can use a cairo for doing the same .
If its s60 (if at all u r experimenting) then using CFbsBitmapDevice context u can create a memory bitmap and then draw it onto graphics context. Webkit also does same kind of operation when it renders its contents on webview. So webkit already does it ... u just need to find way to manipulate. Please correct me if i am wrong on this .... :) Thanks & Regards Niilesh On Sat, Dec 27, 2008 at 9:49 AM, Lucius Fox <[email protected]> wrote: > > > On Thu, Dec 25, 2008 at 12:09 PM, Darin Adler <[email protected]> wrote: >> >> On Dec 24, 2008, at 7:48 PM, Lucius Fox wrote: >> >>> Thanks.
