Imagine you have the following problem: You want to load a url in a UIWebView. But the resource at that url requires authentication, and if the user is not authenticated the web page responds with a “403 Not Authenticated” without showing any other instructions on how to login or where to go next etc. Ideally you’d want to redirect the user to a page where she can log in and continue to browse the url.
