uitableview - Advance search implementation in iphone?

Question

I want to implement advance search functionality so that if a particular text is typed in search bar, the list of contents in UITableview should be filtered based on the search and then the search text occurances should be highlighted? Please give me some ideas?

Answer 1

Use NSAttributedString... Find UIControllers that draw NSAttribute String because UILabel,UITextView doesnot support NSAttributedString...

Get the controller here: https://github.com/AliSoftware/Ali-Cocoa-Classes/tree/master/OHAttributedLabel

PS: if you plan to distribute an iOS6-only application, as UILabel now support NSAttributedString, you should use UILabel directly instead of OHAttributedLabel as it is now natively supported by the OS.
