UITextField subview of UITableViewCell, get indexPath of cell

by

Call [UIView superview] on the field to get the cell that it’s in, then call [UITableView indexPathForCell:] on the cell to get the index path.

UPDATE: on iOS 7 you need to call superview on that view too (extra layer of views); here’s a category on UITableView that should work independent of iOS version:

@interface UITableView (MyCoolExtension) 

- (NSIndexPath *)indexPathForCellContainingView:(UIView *)view;

@end

@implementation UITableView (MyCoolExtension)

- (NSIndexPath *)indexPathForCellContainingView:(UIView *)view {
    while (view != nil) {
        if ([view isKindOfClass:[UITableViewCell class]]) {
            return [self indexPathForCell:(UITableViewCell *)view];
        } else {
            view = [view superview];
        }
    }

    return nil;
}

@end
