Create Project:

8) Expand your classes and resources folder, once your project has been saved
9) Then double-click on MainWindow.xib and wait for interface builder to show up
10) In your library drag a view onto the app then a navigation bar FIRST (before the webview), then a webview and double click on the navigation bar and change the name to Mobile Yahoo! Test (I’m naming it Test so I don’t get in trouble by Yahoo!)
11) Add two bar button items
12) Click on the first bar button and under inspector (tools-inspector in the Interface Builder menu) click on the first tab (attributes) and under identifier scroll until you find refresh select that
13) Click on the bar button to the right, under attributes, title-type in “Back” (without the “”) so far the app should look something like this
14) In your document (Interface Builder menu-window-Document) click on MobileYahoo App Delegate then under Inspector click on the first tab identity (first on the right with a i button)
15) Follow the video until the next steps…

Thanks, I’ve been looking for this for a long time- great video
Thanks,

Thanks for tutorial.
WebView like like any browser needs a ‘back button’ agreed, but unlike a regular browser the ‘back button’ shown here looks active right from launch.
How would you approach either graying out or hiding the back button until the view actually ‘cangoback’?
Look forward to your answer

Hello there, honestly this is a basic tutorial so if you wanted to do a custom webbrowser aim me or skype me both are shayancaneat
Ok Thanks!
@ukuser I have figured out how to help you out on your problem… you need to create a custom button and then setup a timer and then some code…
I will try to create this tutorial when I finish off some of the basic skills needed for the project like NSTimer. First I will make small tutorials on those and then with those skills I’ll create a guide on how to create a custom Web Browser like safari
Ok! :)
You should definitely keep making these nice videos, I can’t wait for more
Hi I keep getting this error!
4AppDelegate.m:21: warning: ‘NSURL’ may not respond to ‘+requestwithURL:’
I don’t think you did something right! Please email me your project (compress it) then send it
