How can i fix my scrollView dynamically when i have more than one textViews in it?

I made a scrollView in interface builder and put 3 textViews and 2 button in that. Sometimes textViews have more text and sometimes less. i managed to give them flexible frame size. but if top textView has more text then some of its text comes over 2nd textView. i tried this code. i think it should work but its not working properly. 

    storyTitle.text = sTitle;
storyTitle.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:18];

date.text = sDate;  
    date.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:16];

summary.text = sSummary;
summary.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:16];

CGRect titleFrame = storyTitle.frame;
titleFrame.size.height = storyTitle.contentSize.height;
storyTitle.frame = titleFrame;

CGRect dateFrame = date.frame;
dateFrame.size.height = label.contentSize.height;
date.frame = dateFrame;

CGRect summaryFrame = summary.frame;
summaryFrame.size.height = summary.contentSize.height;
summary.frame = summaryFrame;

CGRect topTextViewFrame = storyTitle.frame;
CGRect middleTextViewFrame = date.frame;
NSLog(@"size: %d",topTextViewFrame.origin.y);
middleTextViewFrame.origin.y = topTextViewFrame.origin.y + topTextViewFrame.size.height;
CGRect bottomTextViewFrame = summary.frame;
bottomTextViewFrame.origin.y = middleTextViewFrame.origin.y + middleTextViewFrame.size.height;

   // then adjust other controls based on these frames, for example:
CGRect myButtonFrame = detailButton.frame;
myButtonFrame.origin.y = bottomTextViewFrame.origin.y + bottomTextViewFrame.size.height;

CGRect myButtonFrame2 = fbButton.frame;
myButtonFrame2.origin.y = myButtonFrame.origin.y + myButtonFrame.size.height;

// finally adjust the contentSize of the scrollview assuming the button is the bottom element
CGSize csize = scrollView.contentSize;
csize.height = myButtonFrame2.origin.y + myButtonFrame2.size.height;
scrollView.contentSize = csize;

can anyone tell me whats wrong with this? and how should i right it so it ll work fine. thanx in advance

hi if your text is not editable by user the try using UILabel instead of UITextView.If you set numberOfLines property of UILabel = 0 then it can go to more that one line and then u can calculate the required height for the label by the method

CGSize size = [label.text sizeWithFont:label.font constrainedToSize:CGSizeMake(label.frame.size.width, FLT_MAX) lineBreakMode:UILineBreakModeWordWrap ];

the u can set the frame of label according to height you get form here like

 label.frame = CGRectMake(label.frame.origin.x,label.frame.origin.y,label.frame.size.width,size.height);

and if you have such multiple labels the uyou can do following

CGSize size = [label1.text sizeWithFont:label1.font constrainedToSize:CGSizeMake(label1.frame.size.width, FLT_MAX) lineBreakMode:UILineBreakModeWordWrap ];
label1.frame =   CGRectMake(label1.frame.origin.x,label1.frame.origin.y,label1.frame.size.width,size.height);

size = [label2.text sizeWithFont:label2.font constrainedToSize:CGSizeMake(label2.frame.size.width, FLT_MAX) lineBreakMode:UILineBreakModeWordWrap ];
label2.frame =   CGRectMake(label2.frame.origin.x,label1.frame.origin.y+label1.frame.size.height+10,label2.frame.size.width,size.height);

size = [label3.text sizeWithFont:label3.font constrainedToSize:CGSizeMake(label3.frame.size.width, FLT_MAX) lineBreakMode:UILineBreakModeWordWrap ];
label3.frame =   CGRectMake(label3.frame.origin.x,label2.frame.origin.y+label2.frame.size.height+10,label3.frame.size.width,size.height);

and finaly you can adjust the content height of your scroll view according tho last label.
