UIWebView

[macdaddy2201]

Ok here is how to make a simple webview

In your .h file

@interface YourViewController : UIViewController<UIWebViewDelegate> {
	UIWebView *dailyWebView;

}
@property(nonatomic, retain) UIWebView *dailyWebView;
@end

And in the .m

@synthesize dailyWebView

- (void)awakeFromNib{
	
	UIView *contentView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] applicationFrame]];
	contentView.backgroundColor = [UIColor lightGrayColor];
	self.view = contentView;
	[contentView release];
	dailyWebView = [[UIWebView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0.0, 45, self.view.bounds.size.width, 375)];
	dailyWebView.delegate=self;
	dailyWebView.scalesPageToFit=YES;
	[dailyWebView loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.google.com"]]];
	[self.view addSubview:dailyWebView];}

And be sure to release your web view at dealloc with

	[dailyWebView release];

Thanks for this, just realised I missed a line out of my code!

Also, you missed a ';' after the synthesize bit.

Is there an advantage in doing this totally programmaticly in stead of using Interface Builder doing most of the code for you?

Yes, you can reference specific items and it is faster to load. Whenever you make something in IB, the xib is parsed on the spot, where as UI stuff that has been programmed runs without having to parse a xib file. So performance is better when not using IB

Thanks for your answer mxweas!

I have another litte question about UIWebView. What I want to do is to send variables in the url, like so:

[webView loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.example.com/index.php?var1=%.f3&var2=%.3f",var1,var2]]];

But I can't seem to get this working. Any ideas about it?

edit: I just found the solution

[webView loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"http://www.example.comindex.php?var1=%.6f&var2=%.6f",variable1,variable2]]]];

just if anyone should want to know
