Hi everyone!

Below is a small code to display contents over UIWebView.

Assuming that you have declared a UIWebView in your header file; in my case it is detailWebView.


NSString* str = @"http://www.yahoo.com";
NSURL* url = [NSURL URLWithString:str];
[self.detailWebView loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url]];

That’s it; keeping user interaction and multi-touch options checked in the xib file will allow the user to play with the web page.

Stay blessed.
