iPhone: Show modal UITableViewController with Navigation bar

Question

I am showing a modal view which is a UITableViewController class. For some reason it won\'t show the navigation bar when I show it. Here is my code:

Answer 1

Here is one way to display navigation bar for those who are using storyboards, suggested by Apple's Tutorial on Storyboard.

Because a modal view controller doesn’t get added to the navigation stack, it doesn’t get a navigation bar from the table view controller’s navigation controller. To give the view controller a navigation bar when presented modally, embed it in its own navigation controller.

1. In the outline view, select View Controller.
2. With the view controller selected, choose Editor > Embed In > Navigation Controller.
