Editing UITextField in UITableView (enable/disable input)?

Im trying to achieve something similar to Apples Contact.app.

When the user press Edit in the detail view the textfields should become enabled, and when the user presses Done/Save then the input UITextFields should be disabled.

So I added:

-(BOOL) textFieldShouldBeginEditing:(UITextField *)textField {
    return [(UITableView*)self.view isEditing];
}

And set the controller to be the delegate for every textfield, but if the users presses Done/Save while editing is taking place the keyboard stays open and the user can edit the string. How can i make sure that this not happens?

Solved by setting the delegate of the textfield to the cell, and implementing these methods.

- (void)setEditing:(BOOL)editing animated:(BOOL)animated {
    [super setEditing:editing animated:animated];
    if (!editing)
        [textField resignFirstResponder];
}

- (BOOL) textFieldShouldBeginEditing:(UITextField *)textField {
    return [self isEditing];
}

you handled only the beggining of the edit ... you should record which uitextbox is the first responder then if you tap the save button you should invoke a resignFirstResponder on the texbox.

Hope this helps, Moszi
