iOS myImageView.hidden will not hide

[John Baughman]

I have a UIImageView in a UITableViewCell. In the TableViewController for the UITableView I am trying to set the image to hidden with myImageView.hidden = YES. As you can see in the code snippet, I have several UILabels in the cell which I am able to succesfully set at the same time, so I am pretty sure I have things wired correctly...

        cell.displayNameLabel.text = person.displayName;
	cell.lastStatusLabel.text = person.lastStatusMsg;
	cell.url.text = person.webAddress;
	if(cell.url.text == @""){
		cell.safariIcon.hidden = YES;
	}else {
		cell.safariIcon.alpha = NO;
	}

Any suggestions? I tried setting alpha to 0, but that did not work either. If I can't get it to hide, I figure I can set the image to a blank image.

Thanks,

John

oooops. After posting I noticed the error in my code snippet. the else line should be safariIcon.hidden = NO not safariIcon.alpha = NO.

OOPS!! again. I did not have the imageView outlet wired in interface builder. duhh!

All is working now.

How long does it take before you stop making these kinds of mistakes? I spend most of my time chasing my tail for things I should already know!
