Question

I have some HTML in my UIWebView controller, but I can not seem to find a reference for creating a link and from the link to correctly link to another controller within my app which uses a navigation controller.

What should I put in the href tag of my links in order to go to other controllers?

Thanks!

You can set your controller as delegate of UIWebView and implement method (UIWebViewDelegate)

- (BOOL)webView:(UIWebView *)aWebView shouldStartLoadWithRequest:(NSURLRequest *)request navigationType:(UIWebViewNavigationType)navigationType;

in your link you can set scheme like this

"myscheme:// ... "

in implementation of method you should check your scheme like this

- (BOOL)webView:(UIWebView *)aWebView shouldStartLoadWithRequest:(NSURLRequest *)request navigationType:(UIWebViewNavigationType)navigationType
{
 BOOL shouldLoad = YES;
    if ([request.URL.scheme isEqualToString:@"myscheme"]) {
         shouldLoad = NO;
         MYViewController *myController = [[MYViewController alloc] init];
         [self.navigationController pushViewController:myController ..];
    }
return shouldLoad;
}
