  • The only case the keyboard should appear is if you have an editable textarea or input.
    You need to set in the html those elements to be readonly or to catch the click event and kill it.

  • Hi all,

    I am very new in iPhone application development. I need your help regarding with iPhone application development.

    In the Text Edit the keyboard panel appears from the bottom side of the screen. A huge gap between text edit and keyboard panel.

    I need to reduce the gap. I want to appear the keyboard panel below the text edit and the bottom side of screen contain some buttons. When the keyboard appears the buttons of the bottom panel never hide and the keyboard panel will appear up the button side and below the text edit.

    Thanks in Advance,
    Anupam
