Ben Pettit’s SVWebViewController fork

This is a fork of Sam Vermette and Blork’s SVWebViewController with a few main differences in mind:

• This version does not support any version of iOS previous to ios6.
• Added UI State Restoration support.
• Added support calling the UIWebView didFinishLoading delegate on all pages loaded including HTML5 pages such as on YouTube.
• Added support for page change notifications delivered via a delegate.
• Added feature of automatically redirecting to the HTTPS protocol rather than the HTTP protocol if supported/desired.
• Added address bar object which can double as a search bar.

SVWebViewController features:

• iPhone and iPad distinct UIs
• full landscape orientation support
• back, forward, stop/refresh and action buttons (with actions “Open in Safari” and “Mail Link”)
• navbar title set to the currently visible web page
• talks with setNetworkActivityIndicatorVisible

Installation

• Drag the SVWebViewController/SVWebViewController folder into your project.
• Add the MessageUI framework to your project

Usage

(see sample Xcode project in /Demo)

Just like any UIViewController, SVWebViewController can be pushed into a UINavigationController stack:

SVWebViewController *webViewController = [[SVWebViewController alloc] initWithAddress:@"http://google.com"];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:webViewController animated:YES];
[webViewController release];

It can also be presented modally using SVModalWebViewController:

SVModalWebViewController *webViewController = [[SVModalWebViewController alloc] initWithAddress:@"http://google.com"];
[self presentModalViewController:webViewController animated:YES];	
[webViewController release];

Changing the bars tint color

Only SVModalWebViewController supports custom tint colors using the barsTintColor property.

Customizing the action sheet

Use the availableActions integer bit mask property to set which actions should be available for display:

enum {
    SVWebViewControllerAvailableActionsNone             = 0,
    SVWebViewControllerAvailableActionsOpenInSafari     = 1 << 0,
    SVWebViewControllerAvailableActionsMailLink         = 1 << 1,
    SVWebViewControllerAvailableActionsCopyLink         = 1 << 2
};

Default is SVWebViewControllerAvailableActionsOpenInSafari | SVWebViewControllerAvailableActionsMailLink.
