Disable Scroll on a UIWebView allowed?

Question

I have to show a web article with a UITableView under the article.

The only option I found was to display the article in a UIWebView in the tableView header.

In order to do that I have to get the height of the webView content and I have to disable scrolling for the webView.

I found two solutions to disable scrolling:

for (id subview in webView.subviews)
    if ([[subview class] isSubclassOfClass: [UIScrollView class]])
        ((UIScrollView *)subview).scrollEnabled=NO;

or in JavaScript:

<script type="text/javascript">
touchMove = function(event) {
    event.preventDefault();
}

I heard that the first solution is forbidden by Apple but I don't have any proof of it. Will my application be rejected by using this solution? If so, can I use the second solution without being rejected?

Starting with iOS5 we have direct access to the scrollview of the UIWebView.
You can disable scrolling and bounces like this:

webView.scrollView.scrollEnabled = NO; 
webView.scrollView.bounces = NO;
