How do i add button style cells to table views in iPhone apps?

I'm not able to find any specific examples in apple's documentation on this. I want to add two to three buttons to a table view programmatically, much like the contacts app does with the send text message/ add to favorites buttons on a contacts's info. does anyone know how to configure this?

• Check this article out. It's awesome and exactly what you are looking for.

  Kevlar : Nice article, but not exactly what i'm looking for.

• What I've done in my apps is create a view with the buttons on it and return that view in the tableView:viewForHeaderInSection: and/or tableView:viewForFooterInSection: methods of the UITableView delegate.
