HTML widgets for tkinter

Fork of tk_html_widgets

This module is a collection of tkinter widgets whose text can be set in HTML format. A HTML widget isn't a web browser frame, it's only a simple and lightweight HTML parser that formats the tags used by the tkinter Text base class. The widgets behaviour is similar to the PyQt5 text widgets (see the PyQt5 HTML markup subset).

pip install tkhtmlview

• Python 3.4 or later with tcl/tk support
• Pillow 5.3.0
• requests

import tkinter as tk
from tkhtmlview import HTMLLabel

root = tk.Tk()
html_label = HTMLLabel(root, html='<h1 style="color: red; text-align: center"> Hello World </H1>')
html_label.pack(fill="both", expand=True)
html_label.fit_height()
root.mainloop()

All widget classes inherits from the tkinter.Text() base class.

Only a subset of the whole HTML tags and attributes are supported (see table below). Where is possibile, I hope to add more HTML support in the next releases.
