Displaying a background image on UIWebView

Question

I\'m trying to build a native application that for all intents and purposes is HTML/CSS and Javascript. It all works fine, but when the UIWebView loads there\'s a delay whi

Answer 1

I've had to do the following in my code to get a transparent background on my UIWebViews - I usually do this in the viewDidLoad method of the UIViewController

self.webView.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
self.webView.opaque = NO;

I think you can also make those changes in Interface Builder in the UIWebViews properties.

And for the background image you can just put a UIImageView in behind the UIWebView now that you've given it a transparent background.
