Open some items in UIWebView, and others in external browser

Question

I'm creating a html5 app, embed in UIWebView. I have delegate webview to controller, and on shouldStartLoadWithRequest, I'm looking for url pattern to open or not on external browser.

It's work perfect!

But when phone has no connection, I'm loading local html file. Because shouldStartLoadWithRequest return FALSE on first request, offline.html not loading

Anyone has do that?

Answer 1

Try this immediately after set path :

do {
    let path = NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource("offline", ofType: "html", inDirectory:"offline")
    let string = try String(contentsOfFile: path!, encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding)
    webView.loadHTMLString(string, baseURL: NSURL(string: "http://"))
} catch {
    print(error)
}

or

let url = NSURL(fileURLWithPath:NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource("offline", ofType:"html", inDirectory: "offline")!)
let request = NSURLRequest(URL: url);
webView.loadRequest(request);

I tried it and it works.

Make sure your "offline" directory is a folder (BLUE) and not a group (YELLOW).

Hope this help.
