Preserve Folder Hierarchy in IOS for html files

I am trying to include a folder structure into my xcode project that contains html, css, js and images like below:

htmlcontent
    html
       test.html
    css
       test.css
    js
       test.js

I copied the folder and its subfolder to xcode and i can see the heirachy there but when i do the following:

NSString *pathToFile = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"test" ofType:@"html"];
NSURL *url = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:pathToFile isDirectory:NO];
[_webView loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url]];

it prints:

/Users/scoota/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/6.0/Applications/8AAC5870-DF24-49BB-BCB8-598C8C0A7C9A/TestApp.app/test.html

Is there a way to preserve the hierachy? The reason i ask is my html file has references to the css like so:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="htmlcontent/test.css" media="screen, projector" />

As a result the css is not loaded. If I change it to the following:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="test.css" media="screen, projector" />

it loads.

Any thoughts?

Solution

  • When you add files to your Xcode project, make sure you select "make folder references" instead of "make groups for folders"

    However, shouldn't that be ,,/css/test.css ?
