How can i change the font color for titleForHeaderInSection?

Question

This is what i currently have to display my text, but i can't seem to be able to change the font color of titleForHeaderInSection.

- (NSString *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView 
                                       titleForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section 
{
    if(section == 0)
        return @"Information";
    if(section == 1)
        return @"Categorize Information";
    return nil;
}

How would i be able to change the font color so it could be red for example?

Edit: I forgot to mention, i'm not using Interface Builder do do this.

Answer 1

You need to create a custom UIView. The best way I have found to do this is in Interface Builder.

.h

@interface MyViewController : UITableViewController {
    IBOutlet UIView *headerView;
}
@property (nonatomic, retain) UIView *headerView;
@end

.m

#import “MyViewController.h”
@implementation MyViewController
@synthesize headerView;

#pragma mark Table Stuff
- (UIView *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView
                                     viewForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section 
{
    /* create a UIView here */
    return headerView;
}

#pragma mark Memory Management
- (void)dealloc {
    [headerView release];
    [super dealloc];
}

In the UITableView delegate use:

- (UIView *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section

to return a custom UIView object, where you can change what you need. See link .
