Its because the page loads in the same thread as the rest of the
application isnt it? So by the time webkit_web_view_load_uri
returns, the page has finished loading and hence
webkit_web_view_get_progress returns 0 and stays at 0 forever.
Presumably the solution is to spin a thread to handle the while loop and
update the progress bar?

How can I check the progress of a page loading, so I can update a
progress bar? Ive tried this:
webkit_web_view_load_uri (WEBKIT_WEB_VIEW (gtkwebview), url.c_str());
//this line on its own works
while (webkit_web_view_get_progress(WEBKIT_WEB_VIEW (gtkwebview)) < 1)
{
//page loading so update progress bar
gtk_progress_bar_set_fraction(GTK_PROGRESS_BAR(progressbar),webkit_web_view_get_progress(WEBKIT_WEB_VIEW
(gtkwebview)));
}
but it just jams in an infinite loop. How is the threading handled
within WebKit? Does the loading take place in a separate thread?
Thanks
