Enabling backgroundTap in uiscrollview without disabling uibuttons

Question

So I have a uiscrollview with a form of textfields. I'm trying to add an action to the background so that when the user taps on the background the keyboard retracts.

I was able to get the backgroundTap to retract the keyboard, but it disabled my uibuttons: Detecting hits in UIScrollView while still letting it do it's thing

As stated in the second answer I added this code to the viewDidLoad:

UITapGestureRecognizer *singleTap = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:@selector(backgroundTap:)];

[scrollView addGestureRecognizer: singleTap];

Where backgroundTap is

- (IBAction)backgroundTap:(id)sender

That allowed me retract the keyboard with a backgroundTap on uiscrollview, however it disabled my cancelButton that closes the modal view of the form and also the submitButton which sends out a HTTP Post.

Any ideas why it's disabling the uibuttons?

Did some more searching and found the correct answer! I'll just post the link and answer here in case other people find this first.

UITapGestureRecognizer *singleTapGestureRecognizer = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:@selector(singleTap:)];

singleTapGestureRecognizer.numberOfTapsRequired = 1;
singleTapGestureRecognizer.enabled = YES;
singleTapGestureRecognizer.cancelsTouchesInView = NO;
[tapableView addGestureRecognizer:singleTapGestureRecognizer];
[singleTapGestureRecognizer release];
