Resign the keyboard when the user click in any area on the screen

The frame where the UISearchBar is drawn is the following:

UISearchBar *sBar=[[UISearchBar alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 280, 40)];

Simply i want to dismiss the keyboard when the user click on ANY area than the area defined above.

Is there any UISearchBar delegate method to do so, or a simple way. Thanx in advance.

You'll need to handle click/touch events on the other views in your window, and call:

if (sBar.isFirstResponder)
    [sBar resignFirstResponder];

sBar will need to be a property of your UIViewController

To handle touch events, add these to your UIViewController:

  - (void) touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event
    {
    }

    - (void) touchesMoved:(NESet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event
    {
    }

    - (void) touchesEnded:(NESet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event
    {
    }

- (void) touchesCancelled:(NESet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event
    {
    }

and call [sBar resignFirstResponder] from at least the touchesBegan method.
