Hi, Am a newbie to iOS programming (but I've done my homework ... going through books on iOS and google tutorials). Am trying to do this:

1. User inputs some text in a text field, & chooses an emoticon.

2. I then add the user-input-text to a UITableViewCell and add the cell to the UITableView.



THE PROBLEM

> Say, the user enters some text and chooses the 'happy' emoticon.

> The emoticon and text get updated in the UITableView. No problem with this.

> Next, the user enters some other text, and chooses the 'sad' emoticon.

> The problem is:
The emoticon in the previous cell (where it's a happy emoticon) also changes to 'sad'; but,I don't want the previous cell's emoticon to change. The previous one has to remain the 'happy' emoticon, and that in the 2nd cell has to be 'sad', b'cos that's what the user chose.


@synthesize table;
@synthesize buttonEmotionHappy;
@synthesize buttonEmotionLaugh;

int myEmoticonNum;

/**
* Called when the button's pressed
* sender : the button which's pressed, consequently invoking this
*/
-(IBAction)buttonPressedid)sender {

NSLog(@"Button Pressed");
[self addToInputArray:[textFieldUserInput text]];

[table reloadData];
textFieldUserInput.text = @"";
}


-(IBAction)emotionExpressedid)sender {

if (sender == buttonEmotionHappy) {

NSLog(@"Happy emoticon chosen");
myEmoticonNum = 1;

} else if (sender == buttonEmotionSad) {

NSLog(@"Sad emoticon chosen");
myEmoticonNum = 2;
}
}

...

if (cell == nil) {

cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc]
initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault
reuseIdentifier:SimpleTableIdentifier];
}


if (myEmotionNum == 1) {
cell.imageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"SmileyHappy.png"];

} else if (myEmotionNum == 2) {
cell.imageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"SmileySad.png"];
}

NSUInteger row = [indexPath row];
cell.textLabel.text = [arrayInput objectAtIndex:row];

return cell;
}

-(void) addToInputArray: (NSString *)userInput {

[arrayInput insertObject:userInput atIndex:0];
NSLog(@"Added %@ to User-Input-Array", userInput);
}


Thanks,

You should be basing which emoticon to show off of the indexPath.row, just like you're doing with the text.
