webview having trouble with redirects - ios

Question

NSURL *urlString = [NSURL URLWithString:urlAddress];
//URL Requst Object
NSURLRequest *requestObj = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:urlString];
//Load the request in the UIWebView.
[self.webview loadRequest:requestObj];
The UIWebView is having trouble with redirects. How can I make sure the uiwebview handles redirects properly?

Answer 1

In order to do a redirect from one site to another, just load your website, but add a BOOL var for checking if the right page is loaded.
BOOL page1Loaded;
then, if you need to change to another site, just create a global NSString var like so
// for site name
NSString *urlAddress;
and just update upon needing to
if(page1Loaded) {
// as seen in #Lithu T.V.'s comment, DO NOT FORGET the http:// or https://
// name of address
urlAddress = #"http://..." or #"https://..."
NSString *urlString = [NSURL URLWithString:urlAddress];
//URL Requst Object
NSURLRequest *requestObj = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:urlString];
//Load the request in the UIWebView.
[self.webview loadRequest:requestObj];
}
else {
// as seen in #Lithu T.V.'s comment, DO NOT FORGET the http:// or https://
// name of redirect
urlAddress = #"http://..." or #"https://..."
NSString *urlString = [NSURL URLWithString:urlAddress];
//URL Requst Object
NSURLRequest *requestObj = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:urlString];
//Load the request in the UIWebView.
[self.webview loadRequest:requestObj];
}
hope this helps!
