.. _wx.richtext.RichTextHTMLHandler:

==========================================================================================================================================
|phoenix_title|  **wx.richtext.RichTextHTMLHandler**
==========================================================================================================================================

Handles HTML output (only) for :ref:`wx.richtext.RichTextCtrl`  content.          

The most flexible way to use this class is to create a temporary object and call its functions directly, rather than use :meth:`wx.richtext.RichTextBuffer.SaveFile`   or :meth:`wx.richtext.RichTextCtrl.SaveFile` . 

Image handling requires a little extra work from the application, to choose an appropriate image format for the target HTML viewer and to clean up the temporary images later. If you are planning to load the HTML into a standard web browser, you can specify the handler flag ``wx.richtext.RICHTEXT_HANDLER_SAVE_IMAGES_TO_BASE64`` (the default) and no extra work is required: the images will be written with the HTML. 

However, if you want HTML compatibility, you will need to use  ``RICHTEXT_HANDLER_SAVE_IMAGES_TO_MEMORY``   or   ``RICHTEXT_HANDLER_SAVE_IMAGES_TO_FILES`` . 

In this case, you must either call :meth:`wx.richtext.RichTextHTMLHandler.DeleteTemporaryImages`   before the next load operation, or you must store the image locations and delete them yourself when appropriate. 

You can call :meth:`wx.richtext.RichTextHTMLHandler.GetTemporaryImageLocations`   to get the array of temporary image names. 



|phoenix_title| Handler flags
=============================

The following flags can be used with this handler, via the handler's :meth:`~wx.richtext.RichTextFileHandler.SetFlags`  function or the buffer or control's SetHandlerFlags() function: 

- ``wx.richtext.RICHTEXT_HANDLER_SAVE_IMAGES_TO_MEMORY`` Images are saved to the memory filesystem: suitable for showing HTML windows. 
- ``wx.richtext.RICHTEXT_HANDLER_SAVE_IMAGES_TO_FILES`` Images are saved to temporary files: suitable for showing in HTML windows. 
- ``wx.richtext.RICHTEXT_HANDLER_SAVE_IMAGES_TO_BASE64`` Images are written with the HTML files in Base 64 format: suitable for showing in web browsers. 
- ``wx.richtext.RICHTEXT_HANDLER_NO_HEADER_FOOTER`` Don't include header and footer tags (HTML, ``HEAD``, ``BODY``), so that the HTML can be used as part of a larger document. 
- ``wx.richtext.RICHTEXT_HANDLER_USE_CSS`` Use CSS where possible, otherwise use workarounds that will show in :ref:`wx.html.HtmlWindow`.
