QWebView - dealing with javascript infinite loop

Question

web_view_crash.py

import sys

from PyQt4.QtGui import *
from PyQt4.QtCore import *
from PyQt4.QtWebKit import *

app = QApplication(sys.argv)
view = QWebView()
view.settings().setAttribute(QWebSettings.JavascriptEnabled, True)
view.load(QUrl('infinite_loop.html'))
view.show()
app.exec_()

infinite_loop.html

<script>
    while(true) {
        document.write('infinite loop...')}
</script>

I want to fix this from my python code, without touching the javascript. Can I kill the javascript somehow?

Edit: Both files are local.

Answer 1

??? This really makes no sense at all. The Javascript file is an infinite loop. You cannot "kill" the page code from the server. It's just impossible - especially when the browser is stuck running CPU-bound Javascript.

Maybe that Javascript file was just supplied as an example, but it doesn't really matter. If you know that you've got a page that's broken in that way, you have to fix the page.

Answer 2

Pointy has no idea what he is talking about ;-) I'm also looking for something similar to this...in fact, I'm looking for a way to allow the script to run without prompting that message.
