如何使用uiwebview打开php网页？

Question

I'm trying to open/display the rssfeed http://www.golfweekly.nl/rss.php in a uiwebview. But the screen stays blank. Opening http://www.google.com will just show the google content.

This is how my WebView.m file is looking:

// Implement viewDidLoad to do additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];

    NSString *strWebPage = @"http://www.golfweekly.nl/rss.php";
    NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:strWebPage];
    NSURLRequest *requestURL = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url];

    [webViewBuienRadar loadRequest:requestURL];
    [strWebPage release];   

}

After some very usefull tip/response it works with the following code :

// Implement viewDidLoad to do additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.

- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];

    NSString * userAgent = @"Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU like Mac OS X; en) AppleWebKit/420+(KHTML, like Gecko) Version/3.0 Mobile/1A543a Safari/419.3";
    NSString * urlString = @"http://reader.mac.com/mobile/v1/http%3A%2F%2Fwww.golfweekly.nl%2Frss.php";
    NSURL *URL = [NSURL URLWithString:urlString];
    NSMutableURLRequest *req = [NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:URL];
    [req setValue:userAgent forHTTPHeaderField:@"User-Agent"];
    NSURLResponse* response = nil;
    NSError* error = nil;
    NSData* data = [NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest:req
                                         returningResponse:&response
                                                     error:&error];
    [webViewBuienRadar loadData:data MIMEType:@"text/html" textEncodingName:@"utf-8" baseURL:URL];
}

Answer 1

Your URL above serves an RSS and not a HTML page. Main desktop browsers like firefox, ie, etc. have a feature to parse the RSS and render it to a user-readable form. UIWebView does not have this feature as far as I know thus it can not load the page. You will need to parse the RSS file yourself and generate a HTML page (or even table view contents, etc) based on it.

Answer 2

Please, refer to that post where you can find a suggestion allowing you to parse the incoming rss feed as the UIWebview wouldn't not display it.

Another nice solution there allows you to change your User Agent.
