IOS read text from MS Word
ios, ipad, iphone, ms-word
Solution
Your loading the UIWebView and then immediately trying to access the dom, its probably not yet ready.
Don't call stringByEvaluatingJavaScriptFromString: until UIWebViewDelegate didFinishLoad: has been called.
Problem
I am trying to read text from MS Word documents (.doc, .docx, .docs). I have been search from last day, but haven't found any solution for this. Please any one tell me what should i do? I have already tried UIWebview to get text from javascript this isn't working as well. ``` - (NSString *)textFromWordDocument:(NSString *)path { UIWebView *theWebView = [[UIWebView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 0, 0)]; NSURL *url = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:path]; NSURLRequest *request = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url]; [theWebView loadRequest:request ]; NSString *document = [theWebView stringByEvaluatingJavaScriptFromString:@"document.documentElement.innerText"]; [theWebView release]; return document; } ``` If some one can tell me what should i do or where to look around, That will be really help full to me thank you
