Issue35: "About the Book"

[Ramiro Algozino]

I've pushed a new branch for the issue35. I'm trying to do the "About
the Book" view, right now it shows some information but I can't make
it show the book's cover.. :-/ can you check it because I don't know
what else to try.. :-/

I don't know if I can do everything that says the issue but I'm
trying, he! if want to hack it, be my guest.. :-)

Thanks!

(Kind of) Solved the cover problem.. it turns out you need to pass the
complete url even with protocol. "/home/usr/image.jp" won't work,
"file:///home/usr/image" does instead.

I hard coded the protocol indicator file:// to the html code, beacuse
I suppose we are always using local files to display the cover.

Yes we are. Keep in mind windows users too ;-)

It *should* work on windows too because the protocol indicator is
specified by "<protocol name>://". But if someone wants to try it just
in case..

I ment that the two slashes are OS independent.

Yes, but the path's backslashes need to be converted, see

There is a QUrl.fromLocalFile() method to do all adequate changes, IIRC.

Fixed and Pushed. :-)

If someone can try it on Windows let me now if it works please.
