How can i set different labels in different section cz in tableview i want to make different sections and i am using the title for header in section.. by doing this i make different sections correctly but not able to differentiate the data between the sections.. Anyone can help me
- (UIView *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section{
// create the parent view that will hold header Label
UIView* customView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0,-60,300,60)];
// create the label object
UILabel *headerLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero];
headerLabel.frame = CGRectMake(0,0,self.view.frame.size.width,60);
UIColor* mainColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:47.0/255 green:168.0/255 blue:228.0/255 alpha:1.0f];
headerLabel.backgroundColor = mainColor;
headerLabel.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:18];
headerLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
//
// UILabel *firstSection = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero];
// firstSection.frame = CGRectMake(0,0,self.view.frame.size.width,60);
//
// firstSection.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:18];
UIView *firstSection = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0,-60,300,60)];
//headerLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
if(section == 0)
headerLabel.text = #"Reciever Party";
UILabel *nameLbl =[[UILabel alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(20, 35, 100 ,50)];
nameLbl.text =#"Name";
nameLbl.textColor=[UIColor blackColor];
UIFont *bold = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:[UIFont systemFontSize]];
[nameLbl setFont:bold];
nameLbl.backgroundColor =[UIColor clearColor];
[headerLabel addSubview:nameLbl];
UILabel *addLbl =[[UILabel alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(20, 65, 100 ,50)];
addLbl.text =#"Address";
addLbl.textColor=[UIColor blackColor];
UIFont *bold1 = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:[UIFont systemFontSize]];
[addLbl setFont:bold1];
addLbl.backgroundColor =[UIColor clearColor];
[headerLabel addSubview:addLbl];
if(section == 1)
headerLabel.text = #"Sender Party";
UILabel *senderName =[[UILabel alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(20, 125, 100 ,50)];
senderName.text =#"Address";
senderName.textColor=[UIColor blackColor];
UIFont *bold2 = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:[UIFont systemFontSize]];
[addLbl setFont:bold2];
senderName.backgroundColor =[UIColor clearColor];
[headerLabel addSubview:senderName];
if(section == 2)
headerLabel.text = #"Third Section Header";
headerLabel.textColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
[customView addSubview:headerLabel];
return customView;
}

I am giving you a sample with hard coded data that how can you show data in section tableView. viewForHeaderInSection is responsible for creating headers of each section, not for showing data in section's row.
I am adding label on cell's content view as you don't want to add this from storyboard/ prototype cell.
Try this:-
In cellForRowAtIndexPath
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:#"YourIdentifier"];
/*
* If the cell is nil it means no cell was available for reuse and that we should
* create a new one.
*/
if (cell == nil) {
/*
* Actually create a new cell (with an identifier so that it can be dequeued).
*/
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleSubtitle reuseIdentifier:#"YourIdentifier"];
UILabel *lbl =[[UILabel alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(20, 15, 100 ,50)];
lbl.textColor=[UIColor blackColor];
UIFont *bold1 = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:[UIFont systemFontSize]];
[lbl setFont:bold1];
lbl.hidden = NO;
lbl.tag = 101;
lbl.backgroundColor =[UIColor clearColor];
[cell.contentView addSubview:lbl];
}
UILabel *lblCell = (UILabel*)[cell.contentView viewWithTag:101];
if(indexPath.section == 0) //first section
{
if (indexPath.row == 0) //first row of first section
{
lblCell.text =#"Name";
}
if (indexPath.row == 1) //second row of first section
{
lblCell.text =#"Address";
}
}
if(indexPath.section == 1) //second section
{
if (indexPath.row == 0) //first row of second section
{
lblCell.text =#"age";
}
if (indexPath.row == 1) //second row of second section
{
lblCell.text =#"phone no.";
}
}
if(indexPath.section == 2) //third section
{
if (indexPath.row == 0) //first row of third section
{
lblCell.text =#"city";
}
if (indexPath.row == 1) //second row of third section
{
lblCell.text =#"father";
}
}
/* Now that the cell is configured we return it to the table view so that it can display it */
return cell;
}

Answer 2

you have to use like that
- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section {
return 40;
}
-(UIView *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section{
UIView *sectionView = [[UIView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 225, 40)];
UIImageView *sectionImage = [[UIImageView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(5, 0, 40, 40)];
sectionImage.image = [UIImage imageNamed:[objMenuImageList objectAtIndex:section]];
sectionImage.contentMode = UIViewContentModeCenter;
[sectionView addSubview:sectionImage];
UILabel *sectionLable = [[UILabel alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(50, 10, 150, 20)];
sectionLable.contentMode = UIViewContentModeLeft;
sectionLable.text = [objMenuList objectAtIndex:section];
[sectionLable setFont:[UIFont systemFontOfSize:14]];
sectionLable.textColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:(206/255.f) green:(180/255.f) blue:(116/255.f) alpha:1.0f];
[sectionView addSubview:sectionLable];
UIButton *sectionButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
sectionButton.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, sectionView.frame.size.width, sectionView.frame.size.height -10);
sectionButton.center = sectionView.center;
sectionButton.tag = section;
// sectionButton.backgroundColor = [UIColor yellowColor];
[sectionButton addTarget:self action:#selector(ExpandCell:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[sectionView addSubview:sectionButton];
sectionView.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
return sectionView;
}

Just keep It simple And Flexible.
Do it like this..
Step 1. Add one custom cell For Header View with UILabel for title.
Step 2. In cellForRowAtIndexPath , dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier this cell .
Use condition as...
` if(section==0){
Cell.title.text= #"your title for section 0"
} // here title is UILabel `
By doing this your code is Flexible enough for Any Future Changes!!!
