You need to make the patch with WebKit trunk, not the branch that is included in Qt (and which is ~1 year old :))

And you need a changelog for the patch.

Could you elaborate on why this patch fixes the problem?

[Jason Barron]

I'm not sure if this happens on all platforms or just Symbian, but some Qt styles (eg: QS60Style) do some pretty nasty stuff to the palette to make it look as native as possible. One of the nasty things is to use Qt::transparent in one of the palette roles (QPalette::Base maybe?) in order for the themed background to shine through. This has been addressed for QWebView by using a custom palette which does not have a transparent base. The same fix should be applied to the QML WebView element so that it does not clear the page with transparent.

This should probably be done in QGraphicsWebView and not in QDeclarativeWebView; Also it should be #ifdefed to Symbian, if I understand the problem you're describing.
