Question

I have a question about showing an alert on the screen. The thing is: I have an app with 20 to 30 different screens (nibs) And in each nib I do some checking to see if the user has inserted text in a textedit. And some alert messages are identical to others. Like In 3 nibs there is a text field for the user to enter his age, and the an alert that shows up if he left it blank.
What i want to do is to create a method to show these alerts so I don`t need to have the same alert on different nibs. instead of calling an alert view in each nib, I would call the method and pass what kind of alertview to pop up.
What would be the best way to implement this method?
TIA.

You can just alloc init a new UIAlertView as usual but you have to remember to pass the delegate in.

Here is my method:

- (UIAlertView *)getUIAlertViewWithDelegate:(id)delegate title:(NSString *)title cancelTitle:(NSString *)cancel {
    return [[[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:title delegate:delegate cancelButtonTitle:cancel otherButtonTitles:nil] autorelease]; 

}
