The problem lies in your URL: "localhost" is not accessible from your iPhone. First, make sure that you can connect to your webservice from other computers (you'll need a computer name or IP address - but not 127.0.0.1). Then connect your iPhone with your local network, and try to call the webservice from the browser. Then comes your coding in xcode.
