Answer 1

To dismiss keyboard your class should conform UITextFieldDelegate protocol and you should implement this method:

- (BOOL)textFieldShouldReturn:(UITextField *)txtField {
    [txtField resignFirstResponder];
    return YES;
}

Answer 2

Your value disappears when your UITableView decides to requery your cell.

Look what you do then: You create a new cell with a new UITextField which - because being new - does not include any value. Your old cell (and the value with it) is lost then.

Answer 3

For hiding the keyboard 'beryllium' & 'Stas' are correct. To hold the text of the textField, store the text in textFieldDidEndEditing method, like this:

- (void)textFieldDidEndEditing:(UITextField *)textField
{
    nameString = textField.text;
}

In your cellForRowAtIndexPath method set the text of textField as textField.text = nameString after initializing the textField.

Answer 4

you can do one thing also set tag for this. and add it on cell direct without accessoryView. Use [cell addSubview:textField]; to add on cell. later access it with the help of tag .
