In function ensureAbsoluteUrl, call is made to QUrl::toLocalFile() which strips the query, fragment part out. Patch corrects this to resolve it before returning absolute url.

Needs a test. :)

Kling as discussed yesterday, I am able to write an automation test. The patch can get tested only when a relative url is passed to QWebView. But the way automation test framework is designed, the test html files are stored in resources directory and an absolute path like qrc:///resources/local.html needs to be passed. When this is passed, the code that needs to be tested is not hit. Tested the below code by passing relative url and it works fine. 

void tst_QWebView::loadRelativeUrl()
{
    QWebView view;
    QSignalSpy spy(view.page(), SIGNAL(loadFinished(bool)));

    // This is the line that should be in the final test. But its absolute path
    // QUrl url("qrc:///resources/local.html");
    
    // This url actually tests the patch
    QUrl url("local.html");

    url.setFragment("Overview");

    view.load(url);
    ::waitForSignal(&view, SIGNAL(loadFinished(bool)));
    QCOMPARE(spy.count(), 1);

    QUrl loadedUrl = view.page()->mainFrame()->url();
    QVERIFY(loadedUrl.hasFragment());
}

Any suggestions to get around this problem.
