This is what will happen, I need to open up 5 new tabs, and then automate the actions in each tab most of which will never be seen. So, to do this, I want to put some code into the webview.cpp, so that when a certain condition is met, on load, it will basically hit the enter key.
keyPressEvent exists within the webview.cpp, but I don't really know how to call it. If I have to overload it, how exactly do I do that?

If you want to automate a GUI - there are better solutions (see http://www.froglogic.com/) If you want to submit several forms - again, better place.

Unfortunately, I wish to do it in the method I have specified. I wish to send the enter key to multiple tabs using the keyPressEvent in webview.cpp. Could you please just specify how I can go about doing that? I'm fairly new at all of this. I have done a lot of work on this, but just need to do that above mentioned action.
