You use the UIWebView class to embed web content in your application. To do so, you simply create a UIWebView\n object, attach it to a window, and send it a request to load web \ncontent. You can also use this class to move back and forward in the \nhistory of webpages, and you can even set some web content properties \nprogrammatically.

Use the loadRequest: method to begin loading web content, the stopLoading method to stop loading, and the loading property to find out if a web view is in the process of loading.

If you allow the user to move back and forward through the webpage history, then you can use the goBack and goForward methods as actions for buttons. Use the canGoBack and canGoForward properties to disable the buttons when the user can’t move in a direction.

By\n default, a web view automatically converts telephone numbers that \nappear in web content to Phone links. When a Phone link is tapped, the \nPhone application launches and dials the number. Set the detectsPhoneNumbers property to NO to turn off this default behavior.

You can also use the scalesPageToFit\n property to programmatically set the scale of web content the first \ntime it is displayed in a web view. Thereafter, the user can change the \nscale using gestures.
