Question

How would I be able to pass the name of a table cell that is clicked in a Master View Controller to a Detailed View Controller. I would like it to be used later in my detailed view right now though I would like to use this data for the detailed view’s navigation item title by means of self.navigationItem.title =. Can anyone please provide basic code to how to make this happen?

Your going to want to use the didselectrowatindexpath method. Something like this, initialize the new view and set the title:

    - (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
        DetailViewController *myDetViewCont = [[DetailViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"DetailViewController" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]];

        NSInteger row = indexPath.row;
        NSString *title = [ListOfItems objectAtIndex:row];

        myDetViewCont.navigationItem.title = title;
        [self.navigationController pushViewController:myDetViewCont animated:YES];

    }
