    <p>I have a navigation-based iOS application. In my <code>RootViewController</code>, users see chapters from 1 to 18. When they select a cell, it takes them to the <code>VersesViewController</code>, where they see another list from Verse 1 to whatever. Depending on what chapter they chose, they will see a different number of verses.</p> <p>I would like to modify the contents of an <code>NSArray</code> in the <code>VersesViewController</code> when the user chooses a cell in the <code>RootViewController</code> view. How can I do this?</p> <p>Here is the <code>RootViewController</code> code:</p> <pre><code>#import "RootViewController.h" @implementation RootViewController - (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad]; self.title = @"Chapters"; chapterList = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init]; for (int i = 1; i&lt;19; i++) { [chapterList addObject:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"Chapter %d", i]]; } } - (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated { [super viewWillAppear:animated]; } - (void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated { [super viewDidAppear:animated]; } - (void)viewWillDisappear:(BOOL)animated { [super viewWillDisappear:animated]; } - (void)viewDidDisappear:(BOOL)animated { [super viewDidDisappear:animated]; } - (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInTableView:(UITableView *)tableView { return 1; } - (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section { return [chapterList count]; } // Customize the appearance of table view cells. - (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath { static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"Cell"; UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier]; if (cell == nil) { cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier] autorelease]; } cell.textLabel.text = [chapterList objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]; return cell; } - (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath { VersesViewController *detailViewController = [[VersesViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"VersesViewController" bundle:nil]; if ([[chapterList objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] isEqual:@"Chapter 9"]) { [detailViewController setNumberOfVerses:18]; } else { [detailViewController setNumberOfVerses:72]; } [self.navigationController pushViewController:detailViewController animated:YES]; [detailViewController release]; } - (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning { [super didReceiveMemoryWarning]; } - (void)viewDidUnload { [super viewDidUnload]; self.title = nil; } - (void)dealloc { [super dealloc]; [chapterList release]; } @end </code></pre> <p>Please note that I am a n00b at Obj-C so I will need very simple answers. Thanks.</p>

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.
