uiwebview

I have a UIWebView and I need to do something when user taps a link. There’s a delegate callback that can be used to detect the taps: - (BOOL) webView: (UIWebView*) webView shouldStartLoadWithRequest: (NSURLRequest*) request navigationType: (UIWebViewNavigationType) navigationType { if (navigationType == UIWebViewNavigationTypeLinkClicked) { … } } The problem is that this code doesn’t handle all link clicks. As an example, a plain Google Search results page does something weird with the links: <a href="http://example.com/" class="l" onmousedown="return rwt(…)"> <em>Link Text</em> </a> The rwt

In iOS, is it possible to put a tap recognizer on a UIWebView, so that when someone single-taps the web view, an action gets performed? Code below doesn't seem fire handleTap when I tap my webView. Thanks. UITapGestureRecognizer *tap = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:@selector(handleTap)]; tap.numberOfTapsRequired = 1; [webView addGestureRecognizer:tap]; [tap release]; -(void) handleTap { NSLog(@"tap"); } I found that I had to implement this method to get it to work: - (BOOL)gestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer

I’m embedding YouTube videos in a UIWebView for an iOS app. I’m using “Method 2” at this YouTube blog post to embed the video. This works great, except that because iOS manages the media player, I can’t determine whether the video is playing or is done. I don’t want to swap that view out with another one while the video is playing, but I don’t see a good way to determine that. Any ideas? If there’s a way to get a JavaScript callback, that will work, or if there’s a way to embed YouTube videos using the HTML5 <video> tag, that will work as well (I’ve tried that and not gotten success). you can
