Thanks Greg, but for all those other beginners here is an example

NSError* error = nil;
NSString* text = [NSString stringWithContentsOfURL:TheUrl encoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding error:&error];
if( text )
{
    NSLog(@"Text=%@", text);
}
else 
{
    NSLog(@"Error = %@", error);
}

Below code will remove your warning message........any question please let mo know.

- (void) connectedToNetwork

    BOOL aflag = ([NSString stringWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.google.co.in/"] encoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding error:nil]!=NULL)?YES:NO; 
    if (!aflag) {
        UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:nil message:@"Sorry!....You are not connected to network "
