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

问题

I am trying to create a UITableView with variable height rows as explained in the answer to this question

My problem is each cell contains a UIWebView with different (statically loaded) content I can't figure out how to calculate the proper height based on the content. Is there a way to do this? I've tried things like this:

   (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
       WebViewCell *cell = (WebViewCell*)[self tableView:tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath];
       [cell setNeedsLayout];
       [cell layoutIfNeeded];
       return cell.bounds.size.height;
    }

The cells themselves are loaded from a nib, which is simply a UITableViewCell containing a UIWebView. (It would also be fine if the cells just adjusted themselves to the largest of the html content, though variable height would be nicer).

This code is probably too slow for table view use, but does the trick. It doesn't look like there's any alternative, as UIWebView offers no direct access to the DOM.

In a view controller's viewDidLoad I load some HTML in a webview and when the load is finished run some javascript to return the element height.

- (void)viewDidLoad
{
    [super viewDidLoad];
    webview.delegate = self;
    [webview loadHTMLString:@"<div id='foo' style='background: red'>The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.</div>" baseURL:nil];
}

- (void)webViewDidFinishLoad:(UIWebView *)webView
{
    NSString *output = [webview stringByEvaluatingJavaScriptFromString:@"document.getElementById(\"foo\").offsetHeight;"];
    NSLog(@"height: %@", output);
}

I was very glad to find your answers, the javascript trick worked well for me.

However, I wanted to say that there is also the "sizeThatFits:" method :

CGSize goodSize = [webView sizeThatFits:CGSizeMake(anyWidth,anyHeigth)];

We have to set a preferred size different from zero, but apart from that, it usually always works !

Usually, because with the UIWebViews, it seems to work only on the second loading (I use the "loadHTMLString:" method, and yes I call "sizeThatFits:" from the delegate "didFinishLoad:" method).

So, that's why I was very happy to find your solution which works in any case.

This seems to work. For now.

- (void)webViewDidFinishLoad:(UIWebView *)webView
{
    CGFloat webViewHeight = 0.0f;
    if (self.subviews.count > 0) {
        UIView *scrollerView = [self.subviews objectAtIndex:0];
        if (scrollerView.subviews.count > 0) {
            UIView *webDocView = scrollerView.subviews.lastObject;
            if ([webDocView isKindOfClass:[NSClassFromString(@"UIWebDocumentView") class]])
                webViewHeight = webDocView.frame.size.height;
        }
    }
}

It should safely return 0 if it fails.

The problem with -sizeThatFits: is that it doesn't work out of the box, at least not on iOS 4.1. It just returns the current size of the webView (no matter whether it's called with CGSizeZero or an arbitrary non-zero size).

I found out that it actually works if you reduce the frame height of the webView prior to calling -sizeThatFits:.

See my solution: How to determine the content size of a UIWebView?

回答5:

If you have bad values with sizeThatFits the first time but not after, here a possible cause I've encountered : a bug with external CSS. It seems webViewDidFinisLoad is called to soon, before external CSS are retrieved, and the web document fully built. I think the bug disappears if you reload because of the cache.

A trick : Preload your CSS with a dummy UIWebView soon in your application.

SDK : IOS4

回答6:

measuring a webview works but only when it has loaded its content

making webview small (like 5px)
load it and wait for finish
calling sizeToFit on it then
getting the size THEN
reload the tableview (return the correct height for the cell)

advertisement: :D see my M42WebviewTableViewCell class on github which struggles with this

回答7:

The better approach is to use scrollView.contentSize.height property, like below.

- (void)webViewDidFinishLoad:(UIWebView *)webView
{
     NSLog(@"%f",webView.scrollView.contentSize.height);   
}
