Frame load interrupted error while loading a word document in UIWebView

I want to load a word document using UIWebView. I used the code provided in http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/qa/qa2008/qa1630.html to load the document.

But not all the documents load successfully. Sometimes I get an error 

Error Domain=WebKitErrorDomain Code=102 UserInfo=0x145bc10 "Frame load interrupted"

The error seems to be very sporadic and I get this error only for some documents. However the same document loads correctly in mail.app.

What am I missing?

Solution

  • The reason was, the file I tried to load doesn't contain a extension. I was purposely removing the file extension (.doc and .ppt) which I think confused the UIWebView. Seems like iPhone ignores the OS 9 legacy typecodes completely. :)
