   .. attribute:: NAVIGATION_ACTION

      This type of policy decision
      is requested when WebKit is about to navigate to a new page in either the
      main frame or a subframe. Acceptable policy decisions are either
      :func:`~gi.repository.WebKit.PolicyDecision.use` or :func:`~gi.repository.WebKit.PolicyDecision.ignore`. This
      type of policy decision is always a :obj:`~gi.repository.WebKit.NavigationPolicyDecision`.







   .. attribute:: NEW_WINDOW_ACTION

      This type of policy decision
      is requested when WebKit is about to create a new window. Acceptable policy
      decisions are either :func:`~gi.repository.WebKit.PolicyDecision.use` or
      :func:`~gi.repository.WebKit.PolicyDecision.ignore`. This type of policy decision is always
      a :obj:`~gi.repository.WebKit.NavigationPolicyDecision`. These decisions are useful for implementing
      special actions for new windows, such as forcing the new window to open
      in a tab when a keyboard modifier is active or handling a special
      target attribute on <a> elements.







   .. attribute:: RESPONSE

      This type of decision is used when WebKit has
      received a response for a network resource and is about to start the load.
      Note that these resources include all subresources of a page such as images
      and stylesheets as well as main documents. Appropriate policy responses to
      this decision are :func:`~gi.repository.WebKit.PolicyDecision.use`, :func:`~gi.repository.WebKit.PolicyDecision.ignore`,
      or :func:`~gi.repository.WebKit.PolicyDecision.download`. This type of policy decision is always
      a :obj:`~gi.repository.WebKit.ResponsePolicyDecision`. This decision is useful for forcing
      some types of resources to be downloaded rather than rendered in the WebView
      or to block the transfer of resources entirely.
