this is my code to create a popover
-(void)revealRightSidebar:(id)sender
{
searchpage* popoverContent = [[searchpage alloc]
init];
UINavigationController *navigationController = [[[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:popoverContent] autorelease];
//resize the popover view shown
//in the current view to the view's size
popoverContent.contentSizeForViewInPopover =
CGSizeMake(320,650);
//create a popover controller
self.popup = [[UIPopoverController alloc]
initWithContentViewController:navigationController];
[self.popup presentPopoverFromRect:_btnsearch.frame
inView:self.view
permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionAny
animated:YES];
//release the popover content
[popoverContent release];
[self resetReadViewToVerse:1];
}
in viewDidLoad method of this page i put the notification

[detailViewController release];
delegate.selectedBook = [[searchResults objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:#"book"];
delegate.selectedChapter = [[searchResults objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:#"chapter"];
delegate.selectedVerse = [[searchResults objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:#"verse"];
[delegate reloadVerses];

}
but when I remove the notification it navigate to the correspondent search in parallelReadViewController page ,but within the popover itself,here the popover dismiss,but no navigation.please help me to do this.
You must be having a navigationController declared inside the AppDelegate class. Use that navigationController for pushing the required view.
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
ParallelReadViewController *detailViewController = [[ParallelReadViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"ParallelReadViewController" bundle:nil];
//detailViewController.firstString = firstString;
// ...
// Pass the selected object to the new view controller.
[delegate.navigationController pushViewController:detailViewController animated:YES];
[detailViewController release];
delegate.selectedBook = [[searchResults objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:#"book"];
delegate.selectedChapter = [[searchResults objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:#"chapter"];
delegate.selectedVerse = [[searchResults objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:#"verse"];
[delegate reloadVerses];
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] postNotificationName:#"popoverShouldDismiss" object:nil];
}
Hope this might help you.......

how to dismiss a Form sheet model view in iPhone

I have three pages. Each page pushes some values to next page like this: bookpage----------values passing to >chapterpage----------values passing to>verse page. When the user taps the button from the main page it shows a model form sheet which has book page. The code for this is:
BookSelectionview *detailViewController = [[BookSelectionview alloc] initWithNibName:#"BookSelectionview" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *navController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:detailViewController];
navController.modalTransitionStyle = UIModalTransitionStyleCoverVertical;
navController.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationFormSheet;
UIBarButtonItem *doneBarButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemDone
target:self
action:#selector(modalViewDone)];
detailViewController.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = doneBarButton;
detailViewController.navigationItem.title = #"Book Selection";
[doneBarButton release];
[self.navigationController presentModalViewController:navController animated:YES];
[detailViewController release];
[navController release];
[self resetReadViewToVerse:1];
}
Then in my chapter page I wrote this code to navigate and pass some value to verse page.
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
ChapterSelectionView *detailViewController = [[ChapterSelectionView alloc] initWithNibName:#"ChapterSelectionView" bundle:nil];
detailViewController.contentSizeForViewInPopover = CGSizeMake(500, 600);
//detailViewController.firstString = firstString;
// ...
// Pass the selected object to the new view controller.
detailViewController.selectedIndex=indexPath.row;
appDelegate.selectedBookIndex=indexPath.row;
self.hidesBottomBarWhenPushed=YES;
[self.navigationController pushViewController:detailViewController animated:YES];
[detailViewController release];
}
and in verse page here is the problem....in tho page includes bible verse which is in the form of buttons when the use tap any button it need to go to the main view and show the corresponding verse,,but it shows the main page inside the form sheet,with the correspondent verse..so i put the dismissmodelview animated:yes to the code.but it cashes..my code in verse page its in button click
appDelegate.selectedBook = [appDelegate.books objectAtIndex:appDelegate.selectedBookIndex];
appDelegate.selectedChapter = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%d",appDelegate.selectedChapterIndex];
appDelegate.selectedVerse = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%d",[sender.titleLabel.text intValue]];
[appDelegate reloadVerses];
ParallelReadViewController *detailViewController = [[ParallelReadViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"ParallelReadViewController" bundle:nil];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:detailViewController animated:YES];
[detailViewController release];
[self.navigationController dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
How can I dismiss the form sheet and go to main page(parallelreadviewcontroller) with the corresponding verse?
Add a notification in main view's viewDidLoad
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self
selector:#selector(dismissTheModelView:)
name:#"dismissTheModelView"
object:nil];
write function in Main view
-(void)dismissTheModelView:(id)sender
{
[self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}
and finally post the notification from where u have to dismiss the popover controller, like
-(IBAction)cancelButtonPressed:(id)sender
{
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] postNotificationName:#"dismissTheModelView" object:nil];
}

parallelViewController is the Main view,but now i get the Mainview inside the popover controller.i just want to dismiss this popover controller and navigate to parallelviewcontroller.how to do this.
Thanks in advance.
You can use
- (void)dismissPopoverAnimated:(BOOL)animated
method to dismiss popover.
And can refer following link for more info - http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/UIKit/Reference/UIPopoverController_class/Reference/Reference.html
EDIT -
You can get your class that contains popover by using -
NSArray *viewControllerArray = [[self.navigationController.viewControllers copy] autorelease];
int arrayElementCount = [viewControllerArray count];
YourViewController *aViewController;
for(int index = 0 ; index < arrayElementCount ; index++) {
if([[viewControllerArray objectAtIndex:index] isKindOfClass:[YourViewController class]]) {
aViewController = [viewControllerArray objectAtIndex:index];
}
}
[aViewController.popoverController dismissPopoverAnimated:YES];

How can I push a new viewController into an existing view within another view controller?

Is it possible to push a new viewController into an existing view within another view controller?
Here is my setup to begin with:
You can see that I have a UITableView. When a cell is tapped, a new view controller is pushed using this code;
DetailTableViewController *viewcontroller = [[DetailTableViewController alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewStyleGrouped];
viewcontroller.item = (MWFeedItem *)[itemsToDisplay objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
[self presentViewController:viewcontroller animated:YES completion:nil];
[viewcontroller release];
Unfortunately this looks like this though and sits on top of the bar at the top saying "Will Roberts"
Why is this happening as it's clearly outside of the view I set it to be pushed from...
Instead of "presentViewController", use
DetailTableViewController *viewcontroller = [[DetailTableViewController alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewStyleGrouped];
viewcontroller.item = (MWFeedItem *)[itemsToDisplay objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:viewcontroller animated:YES];
[viewcontroller release];
or use modal view controller
[self presentModalViewController:viewcontroller animated:YES]
//Presenting new view controller with navigation controller will help you.
DetailTableViewController *viewcontroller = [[DetailTableViewController alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewStyleGrouped];
viewcontroller.item = (MWFeedItem *)[itemsToDisplay objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
[self.navigationController presentViewController:viewcontroller animated:YES completion:nil];
[viewcontroller release];
//Edited
DetailTableViewController *viewcontroller = [[DetailTableViewController alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewStyleGrouped];
UINavigationController *nav1=[[UINavigationController alloc]initWithRootViewController:viewController1];
[self presentModalViewController:nav1 animated:YES];

iPhone: Navigation Bar button indefinitely links to it's own view

When I navigate from the root view to another view, it works. However, when I want to get back, the navigation button links to itself. This goes on for about 6 taps, until it eventually goes back to the root view.
This only occurs on one view, and the rest are working fine.
I have no idea what code is causing this, but if you need any code, I will amend this post with it. Just ask for it.
Thanks a lot,
Jack.
