Question

I have a custom tableview with 6 rows. 5 rows have UITextFields in them, and 1 row has a UISwitch in it.

I add the textboxes like this:

switch (indexPath.row) {
            case 0:
                txtLabel.text = NSLocalizedString(@"Name:", @"");
                txtField.tag=1;
                [txtField becomeFirstResponder];
                [cell.contentView addSubview:txtField];
                [txtField release];
                break;

in the

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

The switch is added like:

case 3:
                txtLabel.text = NSLocalizedString(@"Male:", @"");
                UISwitch *mySwitch = [[[UISwitch alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero] autorelease];
                cell.accessoryView = mySwitch;
                [mySwitch setTag:6];
                break;

I read the values in another method like:

UITextField *daName = (UITextField *)[self.view viewWithTag:1];

But for some reason, as soon as I add the UISwitch, the daName value becomes null. The other values are read well (so tag 2 is ok, tag 3 is ok etc.)

What am I missing here? Because when I remove the UISwitch then I get a value back from tag 1…

Thanks in advance!

EDIT

I just see that as soon as I have 6 rows in my tableview the element with tag id 1 gets null… As soon as I have 5 rows, I can get all values…

Answer 1

Ok I’ve added a mutablearray and added the textfields into the array. That way I don’t have to use the tag anymore and that is working fine…
