Another attempt at wxWebKit

Hi Kevin,

The files were missing so I will have another go making sure the folder permissions are liberal enough. Perhaps that is preventing certain steps.

I will try to add the relevant details to my blog post on wxWebKit. Eventually I will have a guaranteed success formula spelled out ;-).

Thanks for your suggestions and information.

All the best, Grant

The webview .so extension and .py file should have been put in the same directory with the libwxwebkit.so library, which is in <wkRoot>/ WebKitBuild/<configuration>/. Configuration should be "Release" unless you changed it. If the files are there, put that directory on your PYTHONPATH, and you should be able to load the module.

Regards,

Kevin
