getting data from tableviewcell to 2nd view
- by chubsta
I am very new to this and am trying to learn by creating a few little apps for myself.
I have a navigation-based app where the user taps the row to select a film title - i then want the second view to show details of the film.
Thanks to a very helpful person here i am getting the results of the row pressed as 'rowTitle' as follows :
(void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
NSString *key = [keys objectAtIndex:indexPath.section];
NSArray *nameSection = [names objectForKey:key];
NSString *rowTitle = [nameSection objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
NSLog(@"rowTitle = %@", rowTitle);
[tableView deselectRowAtIndexPath:indexPath animated:YES];
I am, however, struggling to make the data at 'rowTitle' available to the 2nd view -
basically, if i can get the info - for example rowTitle is "aliens2" - i want to be able to add a new extension to the end of the string returned by 'rowTitle' in order to point to an image (if that makes sense) in the second view...
something like
tempImageName=[** this is where the info from rowTitle needs to be i suppose**];
tempImageType=@".png";
finalImageName=[tempImageName stringByAppendingString:tempImageType];
does this make sense to anyone (apologies if it doesnt - i know what i want but how to explain it is a little more awkward!)
Thanks again for any help anyone can give (and any help as to formatting these questions would be useful too obviously!!)!
