Great tutorial, though for some reason it doesn’t seem to be working for me. Tried rebuilding myself and the flipping change of content wasn’t working, then I downloaded the source and popped that up on my server and the same thing: no change when the phone flips.

Did you get around to implementing the UIWebview into the project? If so I am interested in checking out the code. Thanks!

Hi,

I can’t get it to parse the CDATA. What can I do about that?

Thanks for the tutorial, it was a great way to get started. We all need more of these on the web. Great work.

Я никогда не сомневался в Ваших интеллектуальных способностях, но поймите, не все такие как Вы. :)

Hi,

Everything works great, thanks. However, I have a problem displaying the summary.

When I display a 3 line description under the title (I just put the summary into a UILabel) the texts come out encoded.

For example this text: Here is a “quote”

Will be displayed: Here is a “quote”

Any ideas how to fix this?

I tried your code and up came Safari! I will study it all in the AM and see what I did wrong!

You should be very proud: it’s over a year ago you posted this and it’s still helping many of us!

I am proud of you, too!!!

Thanks again,
Ed

Great job! I really appreciate the time and effort you have put in for all of our benefit. I got it running OK on the simulator; I tried to load to my iPhone but I think I have it too full – not enough memory. I have never gotten it to load into or even bring up Safari. I don’t have a clue since this involves so little code itself!

Keep up the good work! Don’t let the detractors discourage you; they, for the most part, seem to lack initiative, or in some cases, decency itself. Ignore them! Thanks again, Ed

It was great.
Thanks man.

Although you might want to update it, as some things have changed in the newer SDKs.

Do any of you actually read any previous questions asked/answered before posting a question that has to be reiterated 70 times?

Hi,

This is Great one! though i didn’t yet to test, but going to be soon…

Have two questions to Mr.Jason Terhorst.
1. Will it work this on latest SDK too? (or) To have such thing(Every day news page) with latest SDK development, is there anything else method is available instead of above code?

2. Once we got the results on the table, tap on an item in the table will launch browser show the history? Why is that? If i want to show stories in my application view itself, what should i do? Step by step procedure please.

thanks.

Hi from Spain,
thank you so much, I can see now the RSS of the page in my simulator :D

But I have a problem, this page has spanish characters like “ñ” or “á” which isn’t show correctly in the simulator. How can I do to see correctly the characters?
