Sending Data Iphone to PHP NSUTF8StringEncoding

Question

I was following a video tutorail online to send data to a php file then store that in a database.

I'm really confused how it evan works as theres not post? Its just collecting information from variables. I few youtube comments say the same thing, but some how his works?

My code so far...

- (IBAction)Submit:(id)sender {

    NSString *strURL = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"http://www.bigwavemedia.co.uk/ios/contact.php?name=%@", nameField.text];

    //to execute php code
    NSData *dataURL = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:strURL]];

    NSString *strRes = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:dataURL encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];

    NSLog(@"%@", strRes);  
}

When I hit the submit button, evan though its linked up I get no response?

the php is fine, i just need to work out what to add to the end of this code to send the string across once Submit has been pressed. — Brent, Mar 06 '13 at 14:29

In Your case you Need to create NSURLConnection for communication to server.

NSString *strURL=[NSString stringWithFormat:@"http://www.bigwavemedia.co.uk/ios/contact.php?name=%@", nameField.text];

NSURL *url=[NSURL URLWithString:strURL];
self.request=[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url];

self.nsCon=[[NSURLConnection alloc] initWithRequest:request delegate:self];

            if(self.nsCon)
                self.receivedData=[[NSMutableData alloc] init];
            else
            {
                UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:NSLocalizedString(@"Error",@"") message:NSLocalizedString(@"Not Connected Other View !!",@"") delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:NSLocalizedString(@"OK",@"") otherButtonTitles:nil];
                [alert show];
                [alert release];
            }

And Write require delegate method of NSURLConnection, that describe in above link.
