  • 0

I’m developing an iPad app that supposed to output a website to another view, but when the second view loads, it comes up null. I’m using storyboard to link a button to push the web view controller and load the webpage into that view. The code works fine in the first view (indicated by NSLog), but NSURL never makes it to the second view (NSLog “Null”).

Code in IBAction on first view:

self.sanctuaryWebViewController = [[SanctuaryWebViewController alloc]init];
self.sanctuaryWebViewController.URL = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.website.org"];

Code in ViewDidLoad Second View Controller:

NSURLRequest *requestObject = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:URL];
[webView loadRequest:requestObject];

I have done this in an Iphone app fine declaring a nav delegate to push the view, but not sure if using storyboard or splitview has anything to do with the problem. I spent hours searching for help and tried several different ways to code, but no go. I think I’m close, but not quite there. Using Xcode 4.4 and running on OS 10.8; IOS 5.1

Thanks for any suggestions

    I was declaring UIWebview twice. “webview” and “_webview”. I removed the instant variable declared in .h and kept the property. Made sure “_webview” was used. Also, Since I linked a segue to a button, I got rid of the IBAction method and replaced it with the prepareForSegue method, which calls the segue. Really had know idea what I was doing using storyboard. I knew about the segue methods, but did not realize they are not linked to the button like IBAction methods. They seem to be used in similar way as calling xib files, but calling segues.
