Question

I have a table view with bible verses on each cell. I want to post the verse to Facebook.

I have already done the posting with static text from a textview.

When I tap the cell, an action sheet pops up and there is a button to go to the posting page. This works, the posting page has a textview. How do I get the text view in the posting page to display the content of the selected cell from the tableview?

Answer 1

You will have to save the selected verse in an instance variable (of type NSString*).

- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
     self.verseToBePosted = [tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath].label.text; //whatever is holding the verse

     //other stuff

}

Then, in the action sheet delegate, use this instance variable for posting-

- (void) actionSheet:(UIActionSheet *)actionSheet clickedButtonAtIndex:(NSInteger)buttonIndex
{
      //post if the post button was pressed
      [self postToFB:self.verseToBePosted]; //whatever your function name is
}
