Question

I having a bit difficulty loading images from a json file into UIImage – Table Cells in Xcode. I tried to load the images from the server into a NSArray then populating the table view UIImage cells. Is there something that I am missing here?

Image are located on a SQL server.

Thanks for the help.

Here is the server output from the PHP into Xcode. (cover_image)

)

Here is the code in Xcode

NSArray *itemsimages = [[NSArray alloc]initWithArray:[results valueForKeyPath:@"cover_image"]];
self.itemImages = itemsimages;

Here is the code in table cells

UIImage *imageitm = [UIImage imageNamed: [self.itemImages objectAtIndex: [indexPath row]]];
cell.itmImage.image = imageitm;
return cell;

You don’t have those images stored locally so it doesn’t have any images to display. I suggest using SDWebImage to provide asyncronous image loading from remote location + caching mechanism.
