Subject: [webkit-dev] Disable Javascript security warnings?

Hey all,

I'm working on a web scraper that embeds WebKit directly (via pyWebKitGTK if it 
matters, though I don't think my question is specific to that library).  I'm 
trying to extract image metadata (domains, dimensions, location on the page, 
etc) from a page, including any iframes that are embedded there.

Because WebKit already knows everything about the data I want (image 
dimensions, position on page), I'm extracting content by executing javascript 
via the webkit_web_view_execute_script call described here: 
http://webkitgtk.org/reference/webkitgtk-webkitwebview.html#webkit-web-view-execute-script

My javascript works when the iframes are on the same domain, but fails 
(obviously) when they're not.  How can I disable the "Unsafe JavaScript attempt 
to access frame with URL http://www.google.com/ from frame with URL 
http://10.0.0.50/js_test.html. Domains, protocols and ports must match." error 
message?

I've come across the WebKitSecurityOrigin object and I've been able to extract 
the host/port/protocol of my current page, but I haven't found a way to spoof 
this mechanism...

I know too that Chrome has the --disable-web-security flag, but I can't quite 
put my finger on what I need to do to replicate this functionality when working 
with WebKit directly.

Can anyone offer a pointer or suggestion?

Thanks so much!

--Rob
