I am designing a form in iOS 5, where i'm showing the following fields.
User Id - Numpad Keyboard
Pin Number - Numpad Keyboard
Password - ASCII capable
Confirm Password - ASCII capable
I have a number of problems.
When the keyboard is on screen, fields which are displayed at the bottom are obscured by the keyboard. How do i show them?
There is no next/done button implementation for Numpad Keyboard type. A custom implementation as discussed in SO on this link has the problem, that i have ASCII keyboards too, which display next buttons at the bottom. and while being displayed in the landscape mode, there is no room left for the form.
There are two parts to this.
Keeping controls in view when the keyboard appears.
Having previous/next/done buttons on any keyboard.
For the first part, you want to use a scroll view. See: Moving Content That Is Located Under the Keyboard.
For the second part, you want to set a input accessory view. See: Input Views and Input Accessory Views.
Hope that helps.

I have a simple Swift web view application which loads an input (of type text). Everything is fine, but I want to hide the bar marked with red circle in the picture - keyboard's bar. Is it possible?
According to Apple's documentation there are default keyboard types which can be accessed, but apparently not changed themself.
I'm developing a web app in Swift. Normally, if the user click on a text field, the native keyboard opens itself. How can I remove from this keyboard the keyboard's top bar (with the "done" button and the arrows)? Ho can I resize my web view, if the keyboard is opened?
Thank in advance!
The options to customize the keyboard are quite limited, you can refer to Configuring the Keyboard for Web Views section:
You can include autocorrect and autocapitalize attributes in the
definition of an input element to specify the keyboard’s behaviors...
You can also control which type of keyboard is displayed when a user
touches a text field in a web page...
How can I embed custom keyboard buttons inside the iOS Default keyboard, like the "UP" app by Jawbone has done in the picture below.
I am looking to embed an "#" button identically to how the app has done it (I don't need the # button). I have found ways to add buttons above the keyboard or change the keyboard style (the email style includes the # button but adds unneccessary ones and makes the space button to small) but no way to seamlessly integrate it like above.
That is not a custom button, that is the keyboardType UIKeyboardTypeTwitter.
I want to create a 4 character custom password entry like the iPhone lock screen page. It's going to have a custom designed keyboard pinpad, but thats not the question. I have 4 boxes for the entry of the pin, and each box is separated and has its own custom design. I currently have a clear UITextView on top of each box. However, I'm not really sure how to link all these together so that when I enter a number in the first box, it automatically advances to the next box so I can type the next number. After the last number has been entered, it should automatically check to see if the password is correct and if so do some action. What is the best way to do this?
When implementing UITextFieldDelegate you should check on textField:shouldChangeCharactersInRange:replacementString:
and you can move keyboard focus to next UITextField via BecomeFirstResponder documentation
So on last UITextField you will hide keyboard and disable all UITextboxes automatically, but If I were you, I would prefer to provide button to start checking pin (to let user correct pin if mistyped)
Question is, Whether a button can be placed below the software keyboard that comes in the iPhone when we tap to enter some text.
The soft keyboard comes from the very bottom of the screen , can it be made to move little up and a button can be placed ??
No, this is impossible with public APIs. Your only other option would be to use a completely custom input view.
