What do you mean that the other view doesn't "load?" How do you know?
There are three ways to access the contents of a NIB.
1. Via -[UIViewController initWithNibName:bundle:], which connects the
references to outlets in File's Owner (the view controller itself). If a root
object in the NIB doesn't have a link to the owner's outlet, that object is
adrift and goes away at the next autorelease drain.
2. Via -[NSBundle loadNibNamed:owner:options:], you specify an owner object,
which again gets its IBOutlets filled in from links to File's Owner in the NIB.
No link, no object.
3. By taking the NSArray returned by -[NSBundle loadNibNamed:owner:options:],
usually with owner: set to nil (though that's not required). The array contains
all the root objects in the NIB.
It's up to you to identify the objects: If they're all UIViews, you can set the
tags in Interface Builder and iterate the array to read the tags and handle
each as you wish. If only one of the objects doesn't get connected to an
outlet, you'll know it by iterating the array and picking out the one that
doesn't appear in an outlet.
