Question

I implemented the following code:

NSURL *url = [ NSURL URLWithString:[ NSString stringWithFormat: @'http://www.google.com/search?q=%@', query ] ]; NSURLRequest *request = [ NSURLRequest requestWithURL: url ]; 

I want to extract the body from what I receive back from the url above. I attempted:

NSData *data = [request HTTPBody]; 

The data variable doesn’t return any data? Am I going about extracting the data out of the request the right way?

Thanks!

If you’re just trying to get a web page, you can use this.

NSURL *url = [ NSURL URLWithString: [ NSString stringWithFormat: @'http://www.google.com'] ];  NSString *test = [NSString stringWithContentsOfURL:url]; 

If you really want to convert the data from NSData you can use this:

NSString *myString = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:data encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
