The QWebView class provides a widget that is used to view and edit web documents.
In Qt QWebView is the widget that renders pages for you - if you don't need the networking features it provides, simply don't use them.

@Regof: No, if you need web content rendering you need to use the QtWebKit module. – Georg Fritzsche Apr 25 '10 at 22:25

that is not nessecarily true, see my answer below -- you could potentially use a `QTextEdit` depending on what your HTML is. – swanson Apr 25 '10 at 23:07

@swanson: Ok, i didn't think the OP was ok with displaying subsets of old HTML versions. – Georg Fritzsche Apr 25 '10 at 23:41

Depending on what HTML tags you are using, you might be able to get away with a QTextEdit. It has support for most of HTML, including tables and images. Take a look at the docs and see if it fits your particular needs.
If you need something more advanced, then you will have to use the widgets in QtWebKit.
