One another thing: I actually forgot one of the most important things from my original post regarding fetching ajaxed content. You need to have some sort of mechanism for waiting the dynamic content to load. I set up a thread for this, which waits a bit and then re-reads the html source provided by QFrame. I use “trigger phrases” to check if the dynamic content is really loaded and then proceed. In my case, the original source has text “Loading…” which will be replaced by the actual content so it’s pretty easy to check. You gotta love BeautifulSoup. I’d go insane if I’d had to do html parsing in C++ (but I’m sure there are suitable libraries for that too).

Regarding your link for using pure QT/C++ to render the page, dang, why I didn’t think about that? I can definitely use that approach myself, all though in my case I still probably hand the content parsing to my Python script. I guess I was blinded for my desire to use Python over anything else. Thanks for the link and the idea!
