Hide keyboard when uitextfield is pressed

I am able to hide the keyboard when the user clicks off of a uitextfield by using the [sender resignFirstResponder] command, but I want to hide it as soon as the user clicks inside the textfield. Is this possible?

I have the uitextfield "Editing Did begin" etc etc set up to call a method and that is using the same commands ( [sender resignFirstResponder] ) but the keyboard never disappears? I can see the method is being called and the commands are being run but the keyboard just stays there.

I want to call another method to change views when the user selects the uitextfield. The view changes but the keyboard is up and will not go away.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

 

I am using the textfield to have the interface be consistent. There are other textfields they can edit but I wanted the look and feel to be the same. I thought about using a label but it may look a little odd.

It just seems weird that I cannot force the keyboard to not show up when a user selects the textfield. There should be a "no keyboard" option for textfields.
