I have followed this tutorial http://www.raywenderlich.com/2636/how-to-make-a-simple-rss-reader-iphone-app-tutorial#comments
But I also want to get description/content instead of showing its URL in web view.
I tried everything but nothing worked.
Any help?
As shown in ray wenderlich website, you can get the feed details from GDataXML's GDataXMLElement. Check the key you are getting for description/content GDataXMLElement like:
[item valueForChild:#"description"]
and save that string in the nsobject class you created to save the rss feed required data. After that you can load html string in the webview and add your custom css styling for the html string if needed. You can load html string in webview using webview's
- (void)loadHTMLString:(NSString *)string baseURL:(NSURL *)baseURL
method. Hope my answer helps.

I loaded a file on uiWebView. Its extension type is ".pages". Now I trying to get HTML string from webview, but it returns to empty string.
For ".doc or .docx" files getting the String. It happens to ".pages" extension only.
Thanks in Advance,
NSString *html = [webView stringByEvaluatingJavaScriptFromString:#"document.documentElement.outerHTML"];

In my app for iOS i need to create a pdf document from my webview content. I watched these posts: Creating PDF file from UIWebView and https://coderchrismills.wordpress.com/2011/06/25/making-a-pdf-from-a-uiwebview/
I wonder if there is a simpler way to do it. For example for my project for Mac i use this:
NSData *pdf = [[[[webView mainFrame] frameView] documentView] dataWithPDFInsideRect:[[[webView mainFrame] frameView] documentView].frame];
PDFDocument *doc = [[PDFDocument alloc] initWithData:pdf];
Is there any simple way to do this in iOS?
Which is the best option to obtain best quality pdf document from a webview content?
There isn't a method that allows this directly via the SDK like there is on Mac however you may wish to take a look at BNHtmlPdfKit which allows you to save the contents of URLs, web views and also html strings as PDFs.
For example, as follows:
self.htmlPdfKit = [BNHtmlPdfKit saveUrlAsPdf:[NSURL URLWithString:#"http://itsbrent.net"] toFile:#"...itsbrent.pdf" pageSize:BNPageSizeA6 success:^(NSString *pdfFileName) {
NSLog(#"Done");
} failure:^(NSError *err) {
NSLog(#"Failure");
}];
It makes use of a custom UIPrintPageRenderer which overrides paperRect and printableRect thus causing the UIPrintFormatter to return a pageCount as well as render the document.
I found good answer by AnderCover at
"Creating PDF file from UIWebView"
also it's not using any third party api. To create pdf from webview.
Hope it help's you.
I have a program that retrieves data from a link and i write it out to the Log like this.
NSURL *getURL=[NSURL URLWithString:#"link.php"];
NSError *error=nil;
NSString *str=[NSString stringWithContentsofURL:getURL encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding error:&error];
NSLog(#"%",str);
This prints to the log the three values from my php as expected.
However I am having a little difficulty saving this in an array which then displays it those values in a UISplitviewController (the leftcontroller side).
which is written like this
showArray=[[NSMutableArray alloc]initWithContentofURL:getURL];
then in cellForRowAtIndexPath: method is
cell.textLabel.text=[showArray object atIndex:indexPath.row];
A second thing i have tried is write myURL to an array and tried to initlize showArray with ContentsofArray like this
NSArray *retults=[NSArray arraywithContentsOFURL:getURL];
showArray=[[NSArray alloc]initWithArray:retults];
but THAT dont work
BUT if i say
showArray=[[NSMutableArray alloc]initWithObjects:#"One",#"Two",nil];
One and two shows in my leftview controller....
Would love is someone could help me with this...Thank you
Are you trying to add the contents of the URL or the URL itself ?
If you are trying to just add the URL, then use :
showArray = [#[getURL] mutableCopy];
However, if you are trying to add the contents of the URL, then the doc clearly states that the URL must represent a string representation of an array.
Furthermore :
Returns nil if the location can’t be opened or if the contents of the location can’t be parsed into an array.
EDIT :
I saw your comment on your post and your data looks like JSON data.
You should take a look at the NSJSONSerialisation class which is pretty straightforward to use (you'll find lots of example here on SO).
U have done web services perfectly, now wat u have to do is parse it to an array
First download the SBJSON files in this link
https://github.com/stig/json-framework/
Then, copy them to your workspace.
Then, in the viewController add this
#import "SBJson.h"
Your JSON data contains values in the form of dictionary
SO, to parse them
SBJsonParser * parser=[SBJsonParser new];
NSDictionary * jsonData=(NSDictionary *)[parser objectWithString:outputData];
NSArray * arr=(NSArray *)[NSDictionary objectForKey:#"animal"];
I think this will help

I want to make the following webpage using CocoaHTTPServer: there should be a link to download a file, but the source file must be NSData object in memory.
As far as I see in samples, there is an easy way to link some file on iPhone to the hyperlink. Is it possible to "link" NSData?
Would be very thankful for examples.
All you need to do is to return HTTPDataResponse in your HTTPConnection subclass.
If you want an example have a look at the CocoaHTTPServer sample called DynamicServer and replace - httpResponseForMethod: URI: in MyHTTPConnection with something similar to the following:
- (NSObject<HTTPResponse> *)httpResponseForMethod:(NSString *)method URI:(NSString *)path
{
// Before returning you can analyze the passed path argument and select the correct data object to return...
return [[HTTPDataResponse alloc] initWithData:placeYourDataInstanceHere];
}
