I have a WebView, and I want to call a view in Objective-C from JavaScript. Does someone know how I can do this?
I have this code in my ViewController:
The window.location method of calling objective c from JS isn't recommended. One example of problems: if you make two immediate consecutive calls one is ignored (since you can't change location too quickly) - try it yourself..
I recommend the following alternative approach:
function execute(url)
{
var iframe = document.createElement("IFRAME");
iframe.setAttribute("src", url);
document.documentElement.appendChild(iframe);
iframe.parentNode.removeChild(iframe);
iframe = null;
}
You call the execute
function repeatedly and since each call executes in its own iframe, they should not be ignored when called quickly.
Credits to this guy.
