I'd like to create an RSS feed in my window does but I do not know how. I link the xml file that contains the videos, etc. but I do not know how it works excat.
Can you give me an example please because of the kitchen sink I did not understand.
Thank you
I found this one to be perfect:

Make sure you build the whole project and try to read what is happening. It's only helpful when you actually code it yourself.
EDIT: I just now saw it was for Appcelerator. Check out this tutorial: http://twoappguys.com/blog/appcelerator-view-rss-feed/

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.
I need to update some cells in google doc spreadsheet on iPhone app.
I've downloaded GData source and example projects (not iphone specific) but I can't seem to get it to work. Does anybody know of any good (or any at all ;)) tutorials out there?
Best regards.
The file SpreadsheetTableSampleWindowController.m has examples of using tables and records in spreadsheets. The method randomizeSelectedTable shows how to fill cells with randomly-selected strings.
Have you looked at the introduction? Or maybe you could post the error message your getting or the problem your running into.
I'm writing an app, where I the user has to be able to select multiple adresses. I wanted to solve this in the same way, apple does when you send an SMS to someone.
You can enter text and it gets surrounded by a blue bubble for each adress selected.
I've already found facebook's tree20-kit, but I can't get it to work because of some linker error I cannot solve.
Is there any other kit out there, that's capable of doing this, or do you have any suggestions on how to create such a textField?
Yours,
Bujtor
Interesting. I don't know of any other open source solutions for this, and I think writing from scratch would be much more time consuming than trying to resolve the linker error. I would recommend spending a few hours and do the following:
Create a new empty application.
Download Three20 and follow the detailed instructions on GitHub for linking the framework.
You should be able to get this to link as many others, including myself, have been able to use this framework.
Sorry this isn't a straight forward answer to your question. I hope it was helpful just the same. Andrew.
I am working on a small app, which can open a pdf. My question is, if it is possible to access a hyperlink from a pdf? Because when am trying to click on hyperlink nothing is happening and it's not redirecting me to the link. I tried searching a lot but didn't got any luck on this. Am expecting a quick response as my work is getting delayed because of this issue. If it's possible then what would be the approach? Right now am using UIWebView to open the pdf. Any sample app or code will be of great help.
Thanks for your time .
The only way I know is to use a third party library (or perhaps parse the PDF yourself), find the links, get their rects and catch user taps and compare that to the list of link/hyperlinks/gotos for that particular page.
Unfortunatelly - nothing in the SDK that can help. You can search for a opensource pdf library, like muPDF for instance.
There is a reason why not many applications have that functionality :D
Well I am a newbie, developing an app. I want to use library 320 to display a set of thumbnails generated from a specific image directory .
When user clicks on an image a particular action shold take place. Unable to understand how to implement this library due to poor documentation. Can any body suggest me a better tutorial or source or piece of code to understand this .
I googled it but the outcome was not profitable.
Please enlighten me on this.
Thnx in advance.
Check out the TTCatalog example project that comes with the Three20 source, it shows a fairly standard implementation of photo thumbnails.
Barring that, you can check out the slowly growing Three20 documentation.
