File "RssWebViewController.h":

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>


@interface RssWebViewController : UIView {
    UIWebView *WebView;
}

@property  (nonatomic, retain) IBOutlet UIWebView *WebView;

You need to structure your function definition with the * inside the parentheses:

- (void) NavigateToUrl: (NSString *) url;

It seems that you're referencing self.url, but really should be looking at url (no self.)

Here's a clearer version of the method:

- (void) NavigateToUrl: (NSString *) url {
    NSURLRequest     *request = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL: [NSURL URLWithString: url]];
    [self.WebView loadRequest: request];
}
