How do I change the color of the side Alphabet in an indexed UITableView?

Question

I have a table view with an alphabetical index and am using the side alphabet to get through the list quickly. For those not familiar, that uses this:

- (NS         


        

Answer 1

We have successfully used the following code:

for(UIView *view in [tableView subviews]) {
    if([view respondsToSelector:@selector(setIndexColor:)]) {
        [view performSelector:@selector(setIndexColor:) withObject:[UIColor whiteColor]];
    }
}

which works fine - it's very similar to Mooglas answer - but refrains from using the word "UITableViewIndex".
