Answer 2

UIScrollView *scrollview = [[UIScrollView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, self.view.frame.size.width, self.view.frame.size.height)]; 

NSInteger viewcount= 4; 
for (int i = 0; i <viewcount; i++) 
{ 
CGFloat y = i * self.view.frame.size.height; 
UIView *view = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, y,self.view.frame.size.width, self .view.frame.size.height)];      
view.backgroundColor = [UIColor greenColor]; 
[scrollview addSubview:view]; 
[view release]; 
}
scrollview.contentSize = CGSizeMake(self.view.frame.size.width, self.view.frame.size.height *viewcount);

Here is a scroll view guide from Apple

The basic steps are:

1. Create a UIScrollView and a content view you want to put inside (in your case a UIImageView).
2. Make the content view a subview of the scroll view.
3. Set the content size of the scrollview to the frame size of the content view. This is a very important step that people often omit.
4. Put the scroll view in a window somewhere.

As for the paging behavior, check out UIScrollView’s pagingEnabled property. If you need to scroll by less than a whole page you’ll need to play tricks with clipsToBounds, sort of the reverse of what is happening in this StackOverflow question.
