I have to say you rocked this video! I have been creating native web apps for BB and android but wanted to get them on iOS. I have been reading and watching everything on the web but no luck until I came across your video. I took my current html changed the CSS so the images were sized right and I got an app. What are the next steps to put it on a device or in the app store?

BTW I subscribed to your channel :)

i orgasmed when i saw this. Jolly good job mate.

@Smielle1 Well one simple way is to make a new UiView file which you load when for example a button is pressed on the homescreen. So that takes the user to a different interface with the UIWebView. Then on the new UIView add a "Done" button. Once the users presses that they god back to the homescreen. If the user decides to go back to the view with the UiWebView again, the UIWebView will reload the web content from the start... Thats one approach although not the best approach there is.

Impressive stuff, thanks a lot.

cheers!

[supertecnoboff]

@Faharnouman Glad it helped :D

Make sure not to put the file extension as part of the file name in the NSString so if your PDF is mypdfdoc.pdf, just put mypdfdoc in there. That was a mistake i made.

Great tutorial, thanks for the help!

[supertecnoboff]

@stonefreealttube Thats ok. Glad it helped :D

How do I enable zooming on a pdf-file?

[supertecnoboff]

@dawitgabor You can enable this feature in the Interface builder section of Xcode. In your view, click on your UIWebView and on the right look through the properties tab. Then change the zooming settings.

hey supertechnoboff, so i want to have a pdf reader and want to load a pdf. When I have done everything right it just shows a white screen. do i need to use the child panel in settings.bundle or do i simply import the pdf into resources before i start coding.

history: running xcoded 3.2.5, and also when i start a new viewbased project, i have a main xib and a controller view xib. When you started the projected you only had a controller view xib.

Thanks for your help. I love your videos :)

[soccer4ever2132]

the tutorial isnt working for me, when i open it i just have a gray screen. everything seems to be right. help? :/

[supertecnoboff]

@soccer4ever2132 Hi there.Its probably because you havn't specified the correct path for the file you are trying to load. If you are loading HTML, make sure you import it to your project exactly as I did in this video.

[soccer4ever2132]

actually on second though can you please do a tutorial on how to link a pdf view to the picker view.

[soccer4ever2132]

hey can you do a tutorial on plists in general. mainly for the tablepickers. btw nice tutorial :)

[JonasHamill]

So this means I can write any app in html, follow this tutorial, then be able to post it to the app store?

[supertecnoboff]

@JonasHamill No not really.... For example I dough you could make a game by simply implementing a UIWebView.... etc... I would only recommend using this as one of the features of your iOS App... not the only feature of your iOS App. And Apple will reject apps which simply implement one UIWebView.... So only use this as one of the features of your iOS App but NOT the only feature.

07:49 I think that the iphone only has "mail function" when you are in safari.

so thats why it wont work.. if I remember correctly.
