So i have been trying for a little while now to create a table view with expandable sections and one non expandable section. One of the expandable sections should have 3 text fields inside them in which you can edit the test inside the text field. I was able to get that working bt the moment you collapse the section and expand it again the textfield suddenly duplicates itself above and sometimes swaps itself out with the above cell. Ihavent been able to figure out why or how to make it not do that. The idea is when the user enters text in the field and selects enter the text is stored into an array.
the code:
- (void)viewDidLoad{
[super viewDidLoad];
if (!expandedSections){
expandedSections = [[NSMutableIndexSet alloc] init];
}
manualSensorName = [[NSMutableArray alloc]initWithObjects: @"Sensor",@"",@"2",@"T", nil];
}
- (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning{
[super didReceiveMemoryWarning];
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
#pragma mark - Expanding
- (BOOL)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView canCollapseSection:(NSInteger)section{
if (section>0) return YES;
return NO;
}
#pragma mark - Table view data source
- (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInTableView:(UITableView *)tableView{
return 3;
}
- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section{
if ([self tableView:tableView canCollapseSection:section])
{
if ([expandedSections containsIndex:section])
{
return 5; // return rows when expanded
}
return 1; // only top row showing
}
// Return the number of rows in the section.
return 1;
}
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath{
static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"Cell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) {
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
}
// Configure the cell...
if ([self tableView:tableView canCollapseSection:indexPath.section]){
if (!indexPath.row){
// first row
cell.textLabel.text = @"Expandable"; // only top row showing
if ([expandedSections containsIndex:indexPath.section])
{
UIImageView *arrow = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"arrowUP.png"]];
cell.accessoryView = arrow;
}
else
{
UIImageView *arrow = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"arrowDOWN.png"]];
cell.accessoryView = arrow;
}
}
else {
if (indexPath.row == 1){
NSString *flightNumText = [manualSensorName objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
cell.textLabel.text = flightNumText;
}
else if (indexPath.row == 2){
txtManualSensor = [[UITextField alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(180, 5, 120, 30)];
txtManualSensor.placeholder = @"Select";
txtManualSensor.delegate = self;
txtManualSensor.autocorrectionType = UITextAutocorrectionTypeNo;
txtManualSensor.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
[txtManualSensor setBorderStyle:UITextBorderStyleBezel];
[txtManualSensor setTextAlignment:NSTextAlignmentCenter];
[txtManualSensor setReturnKeyType:UIReturnKeyDone];
// UITextField *playerTextField = [[UITextField alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(180, 5, 120, 30)];
// playerTextField.adjustsFontSizeToFitWidth = YES;

// playerTextField.placeholder = @"SAMPLE";
// playerTextField.tag = 200;
// playerTextField.delegate = self;
// [cell.contentView addSubview:playerTextField];
cell.textLabel.text = @"Sensor Name";
[cell addSubview:txtManualSensor];
}
else if (indexPath.row == 3){
cell.textLabel.text = @"Some Detail";
cell.accessoryView = nil;
cell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryDisclosureIndicator;
}
}
}
else {
cell.accessoryView = nil;
cell.textLabel.text = @"Normal Cell";
}
return cell;
}
- (BOOL)textFieldShouldEndEditing:(UITextField *)textField {
[manualSensorName replaceObjectAtIndex:2 withObject:textField.text];
return YES;

return YES;
