Question

The title is pretty explanatory, but I have a UITableView that I am populating with custom UITableViewCells.

Inside of these custom UITableViewCells, I am adding custom UIViewControllers that display custom images.

To this UIViewController’s UIView, I am adding a UITapGestureRecognizer as follows:

- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];

UITapGestureRecognizer *recognizer = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self 
                                                                             action:@selector(handleTap:)];
recognizer.numberOfTapsRequired = 1;
recognizer.delegate = self;
[self.imageView addGestureRecognizer:recognizer];

[recognizer release];
}

-(void)handleTap:(UITapGestureRecognizer *)sender{
NSLog(@"Handling tap on ArticleTileViewController");
}

When I run the app, the cells are populating the images great, but when I tap on the image(or the custom UIViewController), nothing happens! My NSLog won’t fire. I have looked over the code for an hour now, and don’t see where I am going wrong.

Does anybody see something I’m missing? Or have they run into this before?

If you are trying to get a button on each cell, here is a post on how to do it. Take a look.
