iOS Help with Loading data from the internet when the page is loaded?

[Dman90]

Hi Everyone,

I'm creating my first app.

In my app I have a section called "Latest News" and when the controller is launched it should connect to the website and load all the latest news in a dynamic table.

Can anyone point me in the right direction of a good tutorial or offer me any advice as to how I can do this?

Thanks,

Dman.

An NSURLConnection object provides support to perform the loading of a URL request. The interface for NSURLConnection is sparse, providing only the controls to start and cancel asynchronous loads of a URL request.

Try to implement this by searching for tutorials on the Internet and tell us if anything goes wrong.

Thanks,

Will look into it.

What is the format of your data? Are you getting html directly or are you getting your data in json or xml and then displaying it with native UI?
