i need to curve a view to look like a bookpage sort of like this :
Anybody know if this is possible and how to do it ?
i've already read some questions on sort of the same matter here but never found a decent explanatory answer
I think, you can curving a view using opengl api.
You can read this article, but it's on russian language.
link for source code.

As like my other questions I tried to search for this. But I didn't get anything.
Maybe my path is wrong. Please direct me.
Here is my Question : I have a UITextView. In that I am going to add Numbers, Names and contacts.
I want to show each number separately as MessageComPoser did.
Does anybody know how to make this?
If my question is not worthy, give me the correct answer then downvote.
(For my questions somebody downvoted without even giving any answer!!)
There is no way to do this using apple's native framework, they didn't provided any controls for doing the same.
You can use the TTMssageRecipientField provided by Three20 framework.
I found the Answer. I don't want to use Three20 library since it is Very difficult to use in my project.
So i Found Awesome Link. That gives me the answer.
I used this Code It May HelpFull To many users, specially for those who Upvoted This question.
Exellent Code
I am working on an app with have requirement to give "Droste Effects" on image.i did search on Google more but not find programming solution for this effects.the effect example in there below.

http://www.pmavridis.com/iDroste/iDroste.html
Please provide me suggestion or any tutorials link. How i will do that task?.Thanks in advance.
The Droste effect is a trick made with some intense mathematics and a recursive function. Please read http://www.josleys.com/article_show.php?id=82. If you don't know about recursion please read up http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recursion. Since your request is very specific I doubt there will be many people who happen to have a Droste effect code written in the iphone programming langauge, but the links above should help you understand the math behind creating your own. Good luck.
Hi desperate newbie in need of direction! Well I say newbie, I have almost built myself the app I set out to achieve, a tableview to display story titles from my website, that when touched using the navigation controller slides to the story/article.
Only problem is that I only have test data that is embedded into my views as an array (which is no good to me). I need this data to come from my website, www.theknowledgeoflondon.com. I want to take the title to display in the tableview and then when touch it slide to the actual article.
Been reading up and believe that JSON could be the answer or XML? I do not have a clue on this subject and if I thought learning object c and coco touch was hard this JSON OR XML thing seems to be a new world of PAIN for me!!! and there doesn’t seem to be anything by way of good tutorials out there for someone that has not a clue on the subject. My data is drawn from a simple MySql table from a php script and was hoping there is an easy way to feed this into my table view?
Would be very greatful for any information on a good way forward. Have already downloaded SBJson, but then read that JSONTouch is a good alternative to use. Or should I be using straight XML. Any help and good tutorials would be much appriciated.
Thanks you in advance.

I made an app last week that uses XML and I found it the easier way of doing what you want to do. But I found an awesome tutorial that I believe is perfect for what you are trying to do. It helps you create the web service needed and teaches you how to access the data that you wish to access.
http://www.raywenderlich.com/2941/how-to-write-a-simple-phpmysql-web-service-for-an-ios-app
and also check
http://www.raywenderlich.com/2965/how-to-write-an-ios-app-that-uses-a-web-service
And for even more information on web related subjects also have a look at www.w3schools.com it is an amazing website dedicated to teach about web technologies such as XML and the like.
Hope it helps you as much as it has helped me.
If you have the option to choose then I will suggest to use plist format. Open a plist file with a plain text editor. You will find that that is actually a XML file. The big advantage of using plist is that you don't need another parser. You can convert a plist file directly to NSArray using arrayWithContentsOfFile or arrayWithContentsOfURL or convert them directly to NSDictionary by using similar methods. And you can create them using plist editor of Mac easily.
The problem? I look up stuff in the xcode documentation and find very useful lists of objects, methods, etc... But then I still have to go somewhere else to find useful example code of how to use that object. For example, I looked up NSNumber yesterday and found all of the neat stuff it can do, but I still had no clue how to use it. That's just an example. I'm sure I could read the objective c pdf front to back and learn something there (which I plan on doing) but what about later? When I'm looking up some UIKit object? Do I have to go find a tutorial each time (or lately, I just ask StackOverflow and you guys take care of me).
Is there a part of the apple website / xcode documentation that shows the example code I'm looking for?
Is there a wiki site out there or something that has what I'm looking for? (I just tried a simple google search "iphone sdk wiki". this site could be good. iphone sdk wiki . I'll check it out. Anyone else have one they like? )
This is also sort of a mild complaint to Apple. Why not a section on each code definition page that shows usage?
I've found the sample code section on Apple's iPhone Developer Connection be extremely useful not only for samples of complete applications but also a best practices source. Going through the code of The Elements, for example, will expose you to how to use particular classes as well as how to structure your code. It is a wonderful example of how to create a non-trivial iPhone app.
Look in developer.apple.com/iphone they have pretty good documentation (you can use the search bar there) on all the classes and have a lot of good sample code..
I really would emphasize the "Related sample code" section on many, if not most, of the documented classes.
But, IMHO, there isn't any easy way of acquiring the knowledge to develop in Cocoa/Cocoa Touch. The API's are so numerous that it simply takes a lot of time and experience. You just have to work on it, look at a lot of books and study the sample source code where available.
I've tried to take a purposeful approach by carving out some time every week to learning a new API/class irrespective of whether my current project needs it or not.
Alternatively, search Joe Hewitt. He's the developer for iPhone facebook. He has a project you can download that demonstrates all the features of facebook. It's an awesome open source project!
When you look something up in Xcode Developer Documentation, you sometimes get a Related Sample Code: text that tells you what Sample the method or property is used in. Too bad you can't click on it to see the code, but if you do click it takes you to the page to download the sample. – mahboudz 0 secs ago
Apple Developer site has all kinds of code examples. Try searching google for a UICatalog project, it will show you all the basic UI stuff you can do, like adding buttons and progressbars through using only code.
I need to implement cover flow functionality to our iPhone application. I tried to find sample code online to get started with it, but I didn't have any luck. Can anyone tell me how to implement cover flow functionality or give me a sample?
Thanks In Advance!
Try FlowCover at
http://www.chaosinmotion.com/flowcover.m
the source code provides you with a FlowCoverView realizing the coverflow effect.
You simply need to customize a few delegate methods. Take a look at the example source code, customizing it to suit your needs should be straightforward.
You might also want to check out a library I released at iPhoneDevCamp -- OpenFlow. http://apparentlogic.com/openflow
It is all core animation-based, so it's easy to understand and customize to your needs. AFOpenFlowView is a subclass of UIView.
I included a demo application, and check out the blog entry on my personal website for a bit more information about its use. fajkowski.com

This one looks promising:

Seems to be more actively maintained than the other two suggested above.
