Re: who is currently the first responder? (iOS)

No. I devote some space to ranting about this in my book. The app obviously *knows* who the first responder is, so why won't it tell you?

My workaround is to implement delegate methods on all my UITextFields and store a reference to the text field in an instance variable when it starts being edited. Oh, and as I warn in the book, do NOT name that instance variable "firstResponder" or your app will fall to its knees; guess how I found *that* out? :)

>I want to make the edit commit

Oh. Well, if that's your only problem, then all you have to do is call endEditing: on the superview.
