    <p>I have a table view in an iOS application I'm working on, and I want to load the data and start searching only when the search key on the keyboard is clicked. Presently, it loads the data when I start typing in the search field, however, since there is a lot of data, this creates a lot of lag. </p> <p>I've tried looking online, but most tutorials or examples refer to loading the data immediately or when the user is typing in the search bar. </p> <p>Any suggestions would be much appreciated, thank you!</p> <h2>UPDATE: SOLVED</h2> <p><em><strong>[Thanks to Tim &amp; channi's suggestions]</em></strong> </p> <p>The code below is the updated solution: </p> <pre><code>- (void)filterContentForSearchText:(NSString*)searchText scope:(NSString*)scope { /* loads the file into a dictionary */ NSString *myFile=[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"test" ofType:@"plist"]; dict = [[NSDictionary alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:myFile]; recipes = [dict allKeys]; NSPredicate *resultPredicate = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"SELF contains[cd] %@", searchText]; searchResults = [recipes filteredArrayUsingPredicate:resultPredicate]; } -(void)searchBarSearchButtonClicked:(UISearchBar *)searchBar { [self filterContentForSearchText:self.searchBar.text scope:[[self.searchDisplayController.searchBar scopeButtonTitles] objectAtIndex:[self.searchDisplayController.searchBar selectedScopeButtonIndex]]]; /* reloads the searchResults table view with the new data */ [self.searchDisplayController.searchResultsTableView reloadData]; [self.searchBar resignFirstResponder]; } -(void)searchBarCancelButtonClicked:(UISearchBar *)searchBar { /* Sets both arrays to nil so main table view is a clean view */ searchResults = nil; recipes = nil; } </code></pre>

    1. COCode would be helpful, or more details. Are you using `UISearchBar` or `UITextField` or...? Assuming `UISearchBar` you can implement the [Delegate](http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#DOCUMENTATION/UIKit/Reference/UISearchBarDelegate_Protocol/Reference/Reference.html) and then use `searchBarSearchButtonClicked:`

    2. COSorry, I just edited it to include the code to the .m file. I have tried that, but it won't actually load the data or start searching, so I'm a little confused. I'm very new to iOS programming.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
