Load HTTPS url in a UIWebView

Question

I begin iPhone programming and I have big problem I cant resolve.

So, I have a UIWebview, I can load HTTP url without problems :

NSString urlAdress;
urlAdress = @"http://servername";
NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:urlAdress];
NSURLRequest *requestObj = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url];
[webView loadRequest:requestObj];

Its work, my page is load in my UIwebView, but when I replace :

urlAdress = @"http://servername";

by

urlAdress = @"https://servername";

I have blank screen.

I read its normal, but is there easy method to load https url in my webview ?
I read about ASIHTTPRequest but I didnt arrive to implement it.

I just want to load HTTPS URL.

Solution

Try this :

- (BOOL)connection:(NSURLConnection *)connection canAuthenticateAgainstProtectionSpace:(NSURLProtectionSpace *)protectionSpace {
    return YES;
}


- (void)connection:(NSURLConnection *)connection didReceiveAuthenticationChallenge:(NSURLAuthenticationChallenge *)challenge {
    [challenge.sender useCredential:[NSURLCredential credentialForTrust:challenge.protectionSpace.serverTrust] forAuthenticationChallenge:challenge];
}

Do I just add this to the UIViewController containing the UIWebView? I'm not quite sure what to do with this.

These two methods are part of the NSURLConnectionDelegate protocol, so you put them in whichever file is acting as the delegate for your NSURLConnection.

i was also using a self assigned certificate and it worked with the above implementation.
