Calculate UIWebView height depending on its content

Question

I have a class named Announcement, it has a Title (NSString), a Publishing Date (NSString) and a Body<

Answer 1

There are a few ways of finding the height of a UIWebView's content.

Here are a few pointers to start with:

How to determine UIWebView height based on content, within a variable height UITableView?

How to determine the content size of a UIWebView?

iPhone - get the Content Size of UIWebView

Note that using a UIWebView in a UITableView isn't necessarily a very good idea, specially if you have many Announcements to scroll through in the same UITableView. If you show only one Announcement per UITableView, you should be able to get away with it, but for tables with a lot of cells to scroll through, using webviews in the cells can lead to bad performance issues.

Apple also recommend against using embedding UIWebViews / UITableViews / UIScrollViews.

From the UIWebView Class Reference :

Important: You should not embed UIWebView or UITableView objects in UIScrollView objects. If you do so, unexpected behavior can result because touch events for the two objects can be mixed up and wrongly handled.

My 2 cents :)
