According to the developer documentation, you want the setMainFrameURL method (see here for more info). I don't have Xcode installed so I can't verify this but you might also be able to set this property when you design the interface.

i created a new class with the name "webView" and i put this code:

[[webView MainFrame] loadRequestNSURLRequest requestWithURL: [NSURL URLWithString"http://google.com"]]];

Click to expand...

in AppDelegate.m in applicationDidFinishLaunching function and its says me "use of undeclared identifier 'webView' " but i set the identifier to 'webView'

You have to add the WebKit Framework to your project.

Secondly make sure you have an initialized instance of a WebView class.

only after that will your code work.

Also there is another WebView instance method, that only requires a URL String.

Code:

- (void)setMainFrameURL:(NSString *)URLString

Your code should be more something like this.

AppDelegate.h

Code:

#import <Cocoa/Cocoa.h>
#import <WebKit/WebKit.h>

@interface AppDelegate : NSObject <NSApplicationDelegate>
{
    IBOutlet WebView *webView;
    IBOutlet NSTextField *navbar;
    
    NSString *urlText;
}

@property (nonatomic, readonly, assign) IBOutlet NSWindow *window;

@property (nonatomic, readonly, retain)WebView *webView;
@property (nonatomic, readonly, retain)NSTextField *navbar;

@property (nonatomic, readwrite, copy)NSString *urlText;

- (IBAction)go:(id)sender;

@end

AppDelegate.m

Code:

#import "AppDelegate.h"

@implementation AppDelegate

@synthesize webView, navbar, urlText;

- (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(NSNotification *)aNotification
{
    // Insert code here to initialize your application
    
    urlText = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"http://www.Google.com"];
    [[webView mainFrame] loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:urlText]]];
}

- (IBAction)go:(id)sender
{
    urlText = [navbar stringValue];
    [[webView mainFrame] loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:urlText]]];
}

@end

There is a lot of things you have to do, to get this into a fully fledged browser, this is only
the very basic of code, with no error checking, and it assumes a lot, like the address typed
into your navbar is a correct address.

Also you need to implement the frame load delegate protocol, if you want to monitor the
web page loading progress, or check for network errors.

Try reading the Apple Developer documentation, relating to the WebKit Framework.
