gray line on top of UITableView iOS 5

Question

A strange gray line has appeared on the top of my UITableView in iOS 5 (was never present until I upgraded to Xcode 4.3 and am running app on iOS 5 iPhone) - has anyone else seen this? I was also getting funny white lines in some of my other TableViewControllers that I got rid of by doing this:

    // needed to get rid of funny white lines in iOS 5
    tableView.separatorStyle = UITableViewCellSeparatorStyleSingleLine;
tableView.separatorColor = [UIColor clearColor];

However, this does not work to remove this line. There is no header title here. The line scrolls up and down with my UITableView settings

Try this: tableView.separatorStyle = UITableViewCellSeparatorStyleNone; — iMash, Apr 24 '12 at 14:01
thanks for the quick response - unfortunately that did not work and the line is still there — g_low, Apr 24 '12 at 14:05

You probably are implementing the heightForHeaderInSection method. Either delete it completely or return 0.

-(CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
    return 0.0;
}

If you had a simple background changing colorWithPatternImage with colorWithRed:green:blue:alpha will do the trick.

//self.tableView.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"background"]];
self.tableView.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithRed: green: blue: alpha:]

But for a background like this, if you can crop the background.png image in a way that tilted images make up the whole background, will remove the line on top.
