Question

I see online lot of examples with the loadString called to load static HTML into UIWebView.

I’m trying to build the same in a prepareForSegue() function of my app.

- (void)prepareForSegue:(UIStoryboardSegue *)segue sender:(id)sender {
    MYCLASSController *destViewController = segue.destinationViewController;

    if ([segue.identifier isEqualToString:@"fromListToDetail"]) {
        // let's suppose getHtmlTextForItem returns the NSString @"<b>Some HTML text</b> with formatting"       
        [destViewController.htmlText loadHTMLString: [db getHtmlTextForItem:bookId] baseURL:nil];
    }
}

But It doesn’t load anything. Do you have any idea on how to solve this??? Am I doing something wrong?

Answer 1

Try loading the content in the viewDidLoad method of your class MYCLASSController.

- (void) viewDidLoad {
[UIWebViewInstance loadHTMLString: @"something" baseURL:nil];
}
