Question

Is the following easy to code?

I have a tableview and when the user selects a cell a detail view is loaded.
I want to allow the user to navigate throughout the items/detail-view representing the items in the tableview by left and right swipes, working in the same way as e.g. the home-screen of the iphone (e.g. while swiping, one page is moving off the screen and the next appears).

I have seen this implemented in the MobileRSS-APP, so it is possible, but I just have a hard-time figuring out the way to do it properly.

Thanks a million in advance! I am still trying to find my feet with cocoa-touch…

This is not a secret, Apple provides the sample code called the PageControl that demonstrates exactly what you want to achieve:

This application primarily demonstrates use of UIScrollView’s paging functionality to use horizontal scrolling as a mechanism for navigating between different pages of content.

I implemented it in many of my apps.
