how to call image on touch event in iphone

Question

i have created an application in which there are 2 imageviews and i have added image on image view.i wnt that when i click on my image the image should get selected and the value should be saved in sqlite database.So for that i have created touches method,and added flags for both the images so when particular image is selected it is identified by its flag. this is my code:

-(void) touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {

    UITouch *touch = [[event allTouches] anyObject];

    CGPoint location= [touch locationInView:self.view];

    if(CGRectContainsPoint(firstImage.frame, location)) 
    {
        //set some flag like
        select=1;        
    }
    else if(CGRectContainsPoint(secImage.frame, location))
    {
        select=2;        
    }
    [mComment resignFirstResponder];

}         

- (void)touchesEnded:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event { 

    UITouch  *touch = [[event allTouches] anyObject]; 
    CGPoint location = [touch locationInView:self.view];


    if(CGRectContainsPoint(firstImage.frame, location)) {   
        if(select==1) {

            var=1;
        }
         else if(CGRectContainsPoint(secImage.frame, location))  { 

            if(select==2) {
                vars=2;
            }
            select=0; 
        }
    }
}

But i am having a problem,when i select my first image it properly gets into the if part and stores value 1 into var 1 but when i click secimage it does not enter into elseif part,it just comes out of the loop.What may be the problem .Please help me in solving this problem.thanks

The following change should fix the problem:

- (void)touchesEnded:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event { 

    UITouch  *touch = [[event allTouches] anyObject]; 
    CGPoint location = [touch locationInView:self.view];


    if(CGRectContainsPoint(firstImage.frame, location)) {   
        if(select==1) {

            var=1;
        }}
    if(CGRectContainsPoint(secImage.frame, location))  { 

        if(select==2) {
            vars=2;
        }}
    select=0; 
}

Your above code wasn't working because if(CGRectContainsPoint(firstImage.frame, location) == YES, it will never reach the line if(CGRectContainsPoint(secImage.frame, location)

The code could also be cleaned up a bit. Not sure this is the ideal way of implementing these two methods, but it could work anyway.
