    <p>I have a webView-based app, but I want the user to be able to navigate it with swiping on the trackpad and magic mouse. Therefore, I am going to implement NSPageController.</p> <p>I have looked at the documentation and the PictureSwiper app, however those aren't really meant for a webView. So, I would like to know how I can use an NSPageController on a webView. I have a webView defined as <code>webView</code> and two actions, goBack: and goForward: that load the previous and next page respectively. </p> <p>However, I am unaware of how I get NSPageController to work with a simple webView. There has a to be a way to do it, but I see no way. If someone could please explain what I am suppose to do, that would be great. Or if you are feeling especially generous, you can download my free browser source example. <a href="https://sites.google.com/site/infiniteopensyntax/basic-web-browser" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://sites.google.com/site/infiniteopensyntax/basic-web-browser</a> </p> <p>That source shows how my own app is pretty much set up. If you would like to implement the NSPageController on that app and send me the source, I would really appreciate it. It's not much, but if you do that I'll add the swiping example to Infinite Open Syntax and put your name on it. You can choose the license. </p> <p>This is Cocoa, not Cocoa Touch</p> <p><strong><em>EDIT</em></strong></p> <p>Okay, now I just need to make sure the app still works on Snow Leopard. Supposedly, I can test this by disconnecting the outlets. It works fine, minus the back and forward button. To do this, I believe I check for the class NSPageController. If it doesn't exist, then I just skip using the pageController.</p> <pre><code>- (IBAction)goBack:(id)sender { if (NSClassFromString(@"NSPageController") != Nil) { [self.pageController navigateBack:sender]; } { //Not 10.8 [webView goBack]; } } </code></pre>

    1. COHave you looked at [the documentation for NSPageController](http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/AppKit/Reference/NSPageController_Class/) and [its delegate protocol](http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/releasenotes/WindowsViews/NSPageControllerDelegate_Protocol/), and read through [the introduction of NSPageController in the AppKit release notes](http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/releasenotes/Cocoa/AppKit.html#10_8PageController)?

    2. COYes, yes, and yes. I get the idea, however making it work with a webView confuses me. Since a webView is it's own view, and there is only one of it. How does the PageController work in that circumstance?

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.
