****** HOW TO USE ******

This is a simple project containing a UITableViewController. The controller lines to ensure that whatever content is placed as the text for the textLabel and detailTextLabel is displayed fully by setting the numberOfLines property of the labels appropriately based on the hight of the text. The controller also contains the code needed to have the height for each cell be appropriate based on the summed height of both the textLabel and detailTextLabel. Here is the meat of the project.

// Customize the appearance of table view cells.
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    
    static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"Cell";
    
    UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
    if (cell == nil) {
        cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleSubtitle reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier] autorelease];
    }
    
	cell.textLabel.text = [[data objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:@"title"];
	cell.textLabel.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:18];
	cell.textLabel.numberOfLines = ceilf([[[data objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:@"description"] sizeWithFont:[UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:18] constrainedToSize:CGSizeMake(300, MAXFLOAT) lineBreakMode:UILineBreakModeWordWrap].height/20.0);
	cell.detailTextLabel.text = [[data objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:@"description"];
	cell.detailTextLabel.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:14];
	cell.detailTextLabel.numberOfLines = ceilf([[[data objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:@"description"] sizeWithFont:[UIFont systemFontOfSize:14] constrainedToSize:CGSizeMake(300, MAXFLOAT) lineBreakMode:UILineBreakModeWordWrap].height/20.0);
    
    return cell;
}

- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
	
	NSString *titleString = [[data objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:@"title"];
	NSString *detailString = [[data objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:@"description"];
	CGSize titleSize = [titleString sizeWithFont:[UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:18] constrainedToSize:CGSizeMake(300, MAXFLOAT) lineBreakMode:UILineBreakModeWordWrap];
	CGSize detailSize = [detailString sizeWithFont:[UIFont systemFontOfSize:14] constrainedToSize:CGSizeMake(300, MAXFLOAT) lineBreakMode:UILineBreakModeWordWrap];
	
	return detailSize.height+titleSize.height;
}
