I'm having trouble getting a UIWebView to load a URL that I'm sending to it. Before I get into my code I was wondering if URL has to start with "http://" or can it start with "www."?

I'm using an IBAction to push a UIView on to the stack:

(IBAction)goToWebView {

WebViewController *webController = [[WebViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"WebViewController" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]];

//set the strings
webController.webTitle = [self Title];

webController.webURL = [self website];

//Push the new view on the stack
[[self navigationController] pushViewController:webController animated:YES];
[webController release];
webController = nil;

}

Then here is my WebViewController.h file:

@interface WebViewController : UIViewController {

IBOutlet UIWebView *webView;
NSString *webTitle;
NSString *webURL;

}

@property (nonatomic, retain) IBOutlet UIWebView *webView;
@property (nonatomic, retain) NSString *webTitle;
@property (nonatomic, retain) NSString *webURL; here

And my WebViewController.m file:

- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];

NSString *urlAddress = webURL;

//Create a URL object.
NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:urlAddress];

//URL Requst Object
NSURLRequest *requestObj = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url];

//Load the request in the UIWebView.
[webView loadRequest:requestObj];

}
