Question

I need to get a URL from UIWebView and put it in the address bar. I used this code, but it doesn’t work at all.

- (void)webViewDidStartLoad:(UIWebView *)webView2 shouldStartLoadWithRequest:(NSURLRequest*)request navigationType:(UIWebViewNavigationType)navigationType{
    NSURL *URL = [request URL];
    [webAdress2 setText:[URL absoluteString]];
}

Please help!

I’ve had a similar problem today. Apparently the [request URL] only gets value after the webView has finished loading. So I made a property in the controller with a webView so that I could set a value for it from the class which calls that controller and then just used something like:

[webAdress2 setText:self.theURL];

Hope it helps
