IOS dev forum

Hi, As most people I look up my issues on other forums if I can't find the answer I am looking for on BT. Where do you find answers and where are you comfortable posting? I usually use: - forums.macrumors and - stackoverflow I need more options... Cheers, Farcat PS: I guess it's OK to ask since it is all about bringing knowledge to the BT community. :)

First I try and find things in the BT forums, because a BT answer is usually the most appropriate. Otherwise I google it, and usually the first few answers are from Stack Overflow. Cheers! -- Smug

Those are my go-to's as well, even though SO banned me from ever asking new questions. They determined I was too stupid to learn from them a while ago and decided you can't fix stupid. Go figure.

Thanks guys. I always try to find the answer on the forum first but sometimes it is not there or the search tool won't allow you to find it. Stack Overflows is great but as Chris said they make you feel really stupid :( Nobody makes me feel stupid on Buzztouch...(where is this heart emoticons when you need it?) The reason I am asking is that I have an unresolved issue. I want to ask on another forum but even just phrasing the question without sounding like a total noob ready for the lynching is tricky. http://www.buzztouch.com/forum/thread.php?tid=928A361A7D0BD9C6E83E1F0&fid=5FE1FB2355A48AD674A6CA3&sortColumn=FT.id&sortUpDown=DESC&currentPage=1 I suppose I should also try the official app dev forum. https://developer.apple.com/devforums/ Cheers, Farcat

Fred taught me a really really neat trick a while ago. Go to google and in the search box type: site:buzztouch.com/forum <your search terms here> for example: site:buzztouch.com/forum NavBar Color and it is a *whole* lot better for BT research. If I can't find it that way, I head over to SO. Cheers! -- Smug

Hey, I'm just reaching here... theoretical possibilities and all that... Have you tried this: Set up a single web page with only the html5 audio player in it, set to play a variable name. In HTML5 page #1 give the variable "audioclip1.mp3" and embed the player (iFrame) In HTML5 page #2 give the variable "audioclip2.mp3"and embed the SAME player (iFrame) Since it's only one instance, instead of separate instances of the same thing, perhaps that would cure your ills? but again, I'm just guessing. Not sure if that can work, but it might not be hard to try... Cheers! -- Smug

Try placing the code in -(void)viewWillDissappear{...}

By the way, if anyone knows how to get unbanned from SO, let me know! :). I feel like I could ask better questions now, but have no option to do so. :(

It will be your ip address that is banned. Got to something like hide my ip address and sign up, or use a proxy server to visit the site :)

Thanks guys! @Chris1, I found this post about being banned on SO, might help you :) http://meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/86997/what-can-i-do-when-getting-sorry-we-are-no-longer-accepting-questions-answers. By the sound of it the only way for the ban to be lifted is by contributing positively to the site in other ways and fix your existing post. Makes me like BT even more. Thanks for the code tip, doesn't work though. It is throwing a tantrum with this error: "use of undeclared indentifier 'webView' @Smug, thanks for your suggestion, trying that right now. Would have preferred a native solution (this would be a major re-write) but that might be the only way. Cheers, Farcat
