Load UIWebView's Contents into Email Message

Question

I have a UIWebView in my view controller. This UIWebView shows a PDF file. I have created a button. When the user clicks on this button, I want to send the content of the UIWebView via email. As a template I use the MailComposer from Apple. In this template Apple isn't using a UIWebView. Apple uses local stored data which works fine. So I am looking to send the content of the UIWebView, my displayed PDF, but I don't know how to do this.

Thanks.

Answer 1

You could try using -stringByEvaluatingJavaScriptFromString: to get the HTML content of the page and using -setMessageBody:isHTML: to set the message body. You may want use a <base /> tag, though, to set the page's base URL so relative URLs function.

Edit

You could download the PDF and use addAttachmentData:mimeType:fileName: to attach the PDF to an email.

Answer 2

What you will need to do is download the pdf and save it on the device and then attach it as per Apple' example.
