I know you can use a javascript to do this

<script type="text/javascript">
touchMove = function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
}

Is there a way to do the same using objective-c?

+2  A: 

try this...

UIView * v = [[webView subviews] lastObject];
[v setScrollEnabled:NO];
[v bounces:NO];

EDIT: Added checks to original answer based on comment below

UIView * v = [[webView subviews] lastObject];
if([v isKindOfClass:[UIScrollView class] ]) {
    if ([v respondsToSelector:@selector(setScrollEnabled]) {
        [v setScrollEnabled:NO];
    }
    if ([v respondsToSelector:@selector(bounces)]) {
        [v bounces:NO];
    }
}

This is a very bad idea. `UIWebView`'s internal view hierarchy can change at any OS update. At least check to see if the subview responds to those methods before calling them.

can you explain what this means? is lastObject the <html> element?

@Melina the last subview of the UIWebView, @rpetrich added the check, thx
Aaron Saunders
the last subview of UIWebView is the actual content area? right?
