Question

I have a viewController that has a UIView as a subview, I was wondering how i might tell if and only if the user has clicked on the UIView from the Viewcontroller.

Is this possible?
Thanks!

Check out the UITapGestureRecognizer documentation:

http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/uikit/reference/UITapGestureRecognizer_Class/Reference/Reference.html

You’ll instantiate a UITapGestureRecognizer in your UIViewController, using initWithTarget:action (passing a selector which will handle your tap). Then add the UIGestureRecognizer to your UIView via the addGestureRecognizer method.
