Using CustomCell on tableView, how can I get didSelectRowAtIndexPath called?

I'm populating a UITableView with CustomCells and I'm trying to get didSelectRowAtIndexPath called. Here is the header for the Custom Cell.

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>

@interface CustomCell : UITableViewCell {
    IBOutlet    UILabel         *bizNameLabel;
    IBOutlet    UILabel         *addressLabel;
    IBOutlet    UILabel         *mileageLabel;
    IBOutlet    UIImageView     *bizImage;
}

@property (nonatomic, retain) UILabel     *bizNameLabel;
@property (nonatomic, retain) UILabel     *addressLabel;
@property (nonatomic, retain) UILabel     *mileageLabel;
@property (nonatomic, retain) UIImageView *bizImage;
@end

Pretty simple and straightforward. I have a detailDisclosureButton I'm adding to the cell as well in the cellForRowAtIndexPath method in the cell as well, and the method accessoryButtonTappedForRowWithIndexPath: is being called, but didSelectRowAtIndexPath is not.

- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {

    static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"CustomCell";

    CustomCell *cell = (CustomCell *)[tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];

    if (cell == nil) 
    {
        NSArray *nib = [[NSBundle mainBundle] loadNibNamed:@"CustomCellView" 
                                                     owner:self options:nil];

#ifdef __IPHONE_2_1
        cell = (CustomCell *)[nib objectAtIndex:0];
#else
        cell = (CustomCell *)[nib objectAtIndex:1];
#endif
    }

    // Configure the cell.
    NSDictionary *dict = [rows objectAtIndex: indexPath.row];

        /*
          CODE TO POPULATE INFORMATION IN CUSTOM CELLS HERE
       */

#ifdef __IPHONE_3_0
    cell.accessoryType =  UITableViewCellAccessoryDetailDisclosureButton;
#endif

    return cell;
}

I put an NSLog inside all the methods as well as break points. The method I'm trying to get called is not, but inside my CustomCell class, the following method is. So is there a way to get didSelectRowAtIndexPath to get called while using a CustomCell?

- (void)setSelected:(BOOL)selected animated:(BOOL)animated

check if you have a UITapGestureRecognizer set for myTableView's parent view ..that is probably over riding the touch event and consuming it.

Since you say that tableView:accessoryButtonTappedForRowWithIndexPath: is getting called, we know that your tableView's delegate property is properly set. So tableView:didSelectRowAtIndexPath: should be getting called as well. If it isn't getting called, my best guess is that you have a typo somewhere in the method signature. Copy and paste this method signature into your code to make sure you didn't accidentally omit the "tableView:" part or make a capitalization error.

- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath

EDIT: Secondary hypothesis: In the .xib where you've defined your custom cell, make sure "User Interaction Enabled" is checked.

Custom cell or not should not make any difference. Are you in editing mode? If you are, you have to set allowsSelectionDuringEditing = true on the tableView.
