UINavigationController with UITableView in modal popup (on iPad)

Short Version:

"How do you get a simple UITable drill down UINavigationController-styled non-full-screen modal dialog on the iPad?"

Long version:

I have a very specific set of requirements that I can't seem to get working...

I have a functioning iPad program that that needs to pop up a non-full-screen modal view. This modal needs to have a navigation controller and a simple drill-down table that displays a detailed view that I can have edit some values related to the selected item in the table.

Of course I am looking to have the regular "Back" and "Delete" buttons in the Navigation Bar.

I can handle the detailed view, what I am having issues with:

  1. Non-full-screen popup (mine is always full screen no matter what I try).
  2. The Navigation controller will not display the Table View I tell it to and the navigation bar does not even have the title I assigned to it in IB.

I can't seem to get any of this working. If anyone has a step by step example of how to do this, that would be great,

~Eric

P.S. I am not afraid of doing this 100% programmatically, but all the examples I have been trying to follow (and failing at extending to my problem) use IB.

As for the fullscreen issue, you need to set modalPresentationStyle to UIModalPresentationFormSheet or UIModalPresentationPageSheet on the controller you want to present modally. I'm not sure of a way to do this through IB.

As for your navigation controller/table view, I think more information is needed to provide an answer.
