UITableView with grey lines on the side when trying to add a background. How do you get rid of these lines?

Question

How do you get rid of these lines on the side of the table?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Answer 1

The problem is not in the lines.
The problem is in the labels' background color.
Just set the background color (.backgroundColor property) of the label (the one that contains the text "Item 1", "Item 2" etc.) to [UIColor clearColor] inside the cellForRowAtIndexPath method.
