UIViewController Problem with IB

This is what I do

1. Setup a view with UIViewController Subclass
2. Go to IB, and pull a view into the iphone
3. Pull a navigation bar over the UIView
4. Pull a tableview on the space below.

Everything appears well when I am running the interface builder.

But these things do not work.

1. If I add a button on top of the Navigation Bar, the button appears but IBAction is not called. The button seems to be at a level beneath the Navigation Bar (somewhere else)

2. If I add a footer view for the tableView, it does not appear. I believe the UIView is again masking it or something...

   - (UIView *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForFooterInSection:(NSInteger)section                
   
   {
   
   UIView *viewForFooter = [[UIView alloc] init ];
   UIButton *footerButton =开发者_如何学Go [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(200, 40, 100, 40)];
   footerButton.titleLabel.text = @"Forgot Login";
   //self.forgotLogin = footerButton;
   [viewForFooter addSubview:footerButton];    
    return viewForFooter;
   
   
   }
   

WHY ?

1) No reaction to click: Try to add the action in code. If it works, something was wrong with connecting up the IBAction.

[self.barButton setTarget:self];
[self.barButton setAction:@selector(IBActionHandler:)];

As a backup, you can also try to add the button in code:

UIBarButtonItem *barButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] 
    initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemDone 
                         target:self
                       selector:@selector(IBActionHandler:)];
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = barButton;
[barButton release];

2) Invisible button - I think your button is a custom UIButton, so it is transparent. The title is not visible because you have to set it like this:

[footerButton setTitle:@"Forgot Login" forState:UIControlStateNormal];

If you want a regular rounded angle button you have to set the frame after creating it.

UIButton *footerButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect]; 
// Careful, this button is autoreleased.
[footerButton setFrame:CGRectMake(200, 40, 100, 40)];

BTW, something might also be wrong with your CGRects. The footerView should perhaps also be properly initialized with a frame, and you might have to implement

 -(CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForFooterInSection:(NSInteger)section

as well.

PS: To go with a standard UITableViewController might actually be a good idea. Happy coding!
