iOS TableView Loading Same Cell

Question

I am using the following code to have a tab view. When you click one tab it expands downwards, this is currently working okay but if I open the first tab with the indexPath of 0 which should load a separate custom opened view it will load but then when I go to the other indexPath tabs it displays the same view but if I reload the app and go to the other tabs first they load the correct view. It's nearly like the app is making a cache?

Is there any way to solve this??

Thanks

I think the problem might be that you did not specify the correct reuse identifier in the attributes inspector of the cell in your XIB file(s). You should check if you use the wrong one somewhere, so dequeueing will return an unexpected cell.

You could also set the appropriate reuseIdentifier manually, with a little setValue:forKey: trick:

static NSString *simpleTableIdentifier2 = @"TableViewCellOPENEDbustaxi2";
TableViewCell1 *cell = (TableViewCell1 *)[tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:simpleTableIdentifier2];
if (cell == nil)
{
    NSArray *nib = [[NSBundle mainBundle] loadNibNamed:@"TableViewCellOPENEDbustaxi2" owner:self options:nil];
    cell = [nib objectAtIndex:0];
     [cell setValue:simpleTableIdentifier2 forKey:@"reuseIdentifier"];
}

and so on for the other cells and identifiers.
