Question

In my code I am trying to send some data to my PHP file

For adding stuff into my SQL i use the GET method.

So far I need to use a form on the website, but I’d like to add data with just browsing to it, such as:

http://server.com/add.php?user=some data here&message= last data here

I am trying to use this code so far:

 NSURL *add = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://server.com/ios/add.php?user=iPhone App&message=%@",
                                 messageBox.text]; 

 [messageView loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:add]];

However Xcode tells me: “Too many arguments to method call, expected 1, have 2”

Answer 1

Try this

NSString *urlString = @"http://server.com/ios/add.php?user=iPhone App&message=";
NSString *escapedString = [urlString stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
NSURL *add = [NSURL URLWithString:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@%@",escapedString, messageBox.text]];
[messageView loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:add]]; 

You should be using NSString +stringWithFormat:
