Unfortunately you did not indicate what port you are talking about. So
I am just guessing 'gtk' and answering with that assumption.

The signals of WebKitWebView as well as WebKitWebFrame are sort of
wrong. There is a patch pending in the bug tracker that is suppposed to
fix this. Meanwhile, instead of WebKitWebView::load-finished you want to
use WebKitWebFrame::load-done to actually be notified about the end of
the page load. Note that there is no error handling and failing loads
will usually fail without emitting a signal.
