Popping UIView crashes app

I'm basically pushing a UIView from a UITableViewController and all it contains is a UIWebView. However when I remove the UIView to return back to the UITableView the app crashes.

- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
// Navigation logic may go here. Create and push another view controller.
if (indexPath.row == websiteCell) {
    NSString *urlPath = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"http://%@", exhibitor.website];
    WebViewController *webViewController = [[WebViewController alloc] initWithURLString:urlPath];

    // Pass the selected object to the new view controller.
    [self.parentViewController presentModalViewController:webViewController animated:YES];
    [webViewController release];
}

}

If I comment out the [webViewController release] the app doesn't crash, but I know that this would be a leak.

Below is the code for the Web Browser:

#import "WebViewController.h"

@implementation WebViewController

@synthesize webBrowserView;
@synthesize urlValue;
@synthesize toolBar;
@synthesize spinner;
@synthesize loadUrl;

-(id)initWithURLString:(NSString *)urlString {
if (self = [super init]) {
    urlValue = urlString;
}

return self;
}

[webBrowserView goBack];

[self.parentViewController dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];

Any ideas on why the app is crashing?

I just figured out what it was. In the WebViewController's dealloc I had this:

- (void)dealloc {
[webBrowserView release];
[urlValue release];
[toolBar release];
[spinner release];
[loadUrl release];

webBrowserView.delegate = nil;
urlValue = nil;
toolBar = nil;
spinner = nil;
loadUrl = nil;

[super dealloc];

}

So by changing it to this it works fine and there are no leaks:

- (void)dealloc {
webBrowserView.delegate = nil;
[webBrowserView stopLoading];
urlValue = nil;
toolBar = nil;
spinner = nil;
loadUrl = nil;

[webBrowserView release];
[urlValue release];
[toolBar release];
[spinner release];
[loadUrl release];

[super dealloc];
}

So I didn't nil the delegate before the release so I webview must have still be sending calls to a delegate that doesn't exists.
