Its working in my case

UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"title" message:@"click for submission \n\n\n\n "delegate:self  cancelButtonTitle:@"click for submission"
otherButtonTitles:nil];

    table = [[UITableView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(10, 40, 264, 120)];
    table.delegate = self;
    table.dataSource = self;
    [alert addSubview:table];

    [alert show];

    [table release];

    [alert release];

Is this really what you want?

An alert is very obtrusive, and quite alarming to the user. Alerts are modal and should be use with great discretion. Maybe one of these could be a better solutions:

• Navigate to a new screen with the options in a table view there. Like most of the Settings app do.
• Use a UISegmentedControl, like for example in the settings of a WiFi network.
• Have the options in a UIPopoverController if on iPad.
• Rephrase the option so a UISwitch is the logical control.

Answer 4

Instead of UIAlertView + UITableView is much better to use UIActionSheet.

you can use CAAlertView "https://github.com/chandanankush/CAAlertView" for both tableView listing and datePicker
