    2. Implementing Controllers and Views > 2.19. Loading Web Pages with UIWebView

    2.19. Loading Web Pages with UIWebView

    Problem

    You want to load a web page dynamically right inside your iOS app.

    Solution

    Use the UIWebView class.

    Discussion

    A web view is what the Safari browser uses on iOS to load web content. You have the whole power of Safari in your iOS apps through the UIWebView class. All you have to do is to place a web view on your UI and use one of its loading methods:

    loadData:MIMEType:textEncodingName:baseURL:

    Loads an instance of NSData into the web view.

    loadHTMLString:baseURL:

    Loads an instance of NSString into the web view. The string should be a valid HTML, or in other words, something that a web browser can render.
