Describe ImageInUrlString here.

In my roll-your-own Cocoa browser, I am trying to get the webView:didReceiveIcon:forFrame: method for the WebFrameLoadDelegate delegate to work. Here is the code I am using which is showing the ‘abc’ string in the url address bar but no image attachment. Am I mistaken in thinking that a favicon can be included in a text field in this manner or I am missing something here?

• (void)webView:(WebView *)sender didReceiveIcon:(NSImage *)image forFrame:(WebFrame *)frame { NSString *urlValue = @”abc “; if (frame == [sender mainFrame]) { NSTextAttachment *attachment = [[[NSTextAttachment alloc] init] autorelease]; if ([(NSCell *)[attachment attachmentCell] respondsToSelector:@selector(setImage:)]) { NSLog(@”icon : %@”,image); [(NSCell *)[attachment attachmentCell] setImage:image]; NSDictionary *theAttributes = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys: attachment, NSAttachmentAttributeName, NULL]; NSAttributedString *attrname = [[[NSAttributedString alloc] initWithString: urlValue attributes:theAttributes] autorelease]; NSMutableAttributedString *imageString = (id)[NSMutableAttributedString attributedStringWithAttachment: attachment]; [imageString appendAttributedString: attrname]; NSLog(@” stringer: %@”,imageString); //sends imageString to browser [urlString setStringValue:imageString]; } } }

Here is the output from NSLog when I go to a page like apple.com. Here the log shows the string ‘abc’ (which is showing up in the url address bar) but not the apple favicon that apparently accompanies it.

If anyone could give me a pointer on this, it would be most appreciated.
