monotouch uiwebview cannot find local html

I'm building an iPhone app on Monotouch. Part of my project use local website content. I copy all html, js, css and images used for the website in a folder and import this to my monotouch project. I have set build option for all of these files to Content.

I load the local web content like below:

this.url = Path.Combine (NSBundle.MainBundle.BundlePath, "Content/index.html"); webView.LoadRequest(new NSUrlRequest(new NSUrl(this.url, false)));

The problem is when I run the project, it cannot find my local website and the I got the message below when I try to debug:

The requested URL was not found on this server.

/Users/*****/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/4.3/Applications/092E0D85-92F4-4F4E-9CD2-3FBBCD797F76/Project.app/Content/index.html

The funny thing is when I copy the link to safari, the web is displayed without any problem

I have tried to clear and rebuild the project few times but nothing changes.

Can anyone help me with this?

I'm using OS X Moutain Lion 10.8.2, MonoDevelop 3.0.5, Monotouch 6.0.6, xcode 4.5.2

Thanks in advance

You can use NSURLComponent as shown below. The parameters can be passed in the NSURLComponent Query property.

        string viewerPath = Path.Combine(NSBundle.MainBundle.BundlePath, string.Format("Content/pdfjs/web/{0}", _pdfViewerFileName));
        string queryString = string.Format("file={0}", _pdfFilePath);
        NSUrlComponents components = new NSUrlComponents(viewerPath);
        components.Query = queryString;
        Control.LoadRequest(new NSUrlRequest(components.Url));

Be sure to set Build Action for the htm to BundleResource - your code with this settings works for me !

Thanks for your help.

I've just realise that I have put parameters in the link, e.g: index.html?p1=v1&p2=v2, and it makes the link not work. If I remove those param, it's work without any problem.

Sorry for miss that information on my question.

Now, if I cannot do like normal website, how I can pass parameters to my local website?

It's strange, worked well for me.

Try this instead:

var fileName = "Content/index.html";
webView.LoadHtmlString (File.ReadAllText (fileName),
                        NSUrl.FromFilename (fileName));
