UITableView: click on cells and open the link in cells with UIWebView

Question

I have a UIWebView with a Bookmark button. The bookmarks are saved within a UITableView. The name of the cell is the link of the bookmark. Now I want to click the cells and then the url of the bookmark should loud in my webview. But it does not work, when i click on the cells. This is my code for this:

- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    static NSString *cellIdentifier = @"Cell";

    UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:cellIdentifier];
    if (cell == nil) {
        cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero reuseIdentifier:cellIdentifier];
    }
    cell.textLabel.text = [bookmarks objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
    return cell;
}

-(void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    explorerView.urlField.text = [bookmarks objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
    [explorerView textFieldShouldReturn:explorerView.urlField];
    [self.parentViewController dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:true];
}

Can you please give me a code example how to do this? This would be awesome.

Answer 1

You missing actual code, that will load URL in UIWebView. You should add something like following code to your tableView:didSelectRowAtIndexPath:

NSString *URLString = [bookmarks objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
NSURL *URL = [NSURL URLWithString: URLString];
NSURLRequest *URLRequest = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:URLRequest];
[webView loadURLRequest:URLRequest];
