1. extend a UITableViewController instead of implementing UITableviewDataSource and UITableViewDelegate yourself
2. disable reuse of cells by using a unique cell identifier:

NSString *CellIdentifier = [NSString stringWithFormat: @"Cell%i", indexPath.row];

UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];

if (cell == nil) {

cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier];

..

}

The UITableViewController handles scrolling into view when the keyboard is shown quite nicely. Using the unique identifier will prevent a cell and it’s content to be reused. And I had to agree to some of the feedback: using a UIScrollView to nest a tableView is kind of a hack.

There is a down side to this: UITableViewControllers don’t like to be combined with other view controllers, so you have to use a NavigationController or TabBarController to offer further interaction possibilities. I tried to, but never managed nicely to have for instance a UIToolBar over the UITableView.

Try it out and let me know what you think!
