iPhone: Issue disabling Auto-Cap/autocorrect on a UITextField
ios, iphone, objective-c, uitextfield
Solution
You're setting `autocorrectionType` to `FALSE` as if it were a `BOOL`, but it actually has type `UITextAutocorrectionType`. So `FALSE` is being interpreted as `UITextAutocorrectionTypeDefault`, which means that autocorrection is probably enabled.
I bet it found the name "Phil" in your address book and is autocorrecting the capitalization to match.
Problem
For some reason, even though I disable the auto-cap and auto-correct of my UITextField, it's still capitalizing the first letter of my input. Here is the code: ``` UITextField* textField = [[[UITextField alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(90.0, 10.0, 213.0, 25.0)] autorelease]; [textField setClearButtonMode:UITextFieldViewModeWhileEditing]; textField.returnKeyType = UIReturnKeyGo; textField.autocorrectionType = FALSE; textField.autocapitalizationType = UITextAutocapitalizationTypeNone; textField.delegate = self; if (inputFieldType == Email) { label.text = @"Email:"; textField.keyboardType = UIKeyboardTypeEmailAddress; emailTextField = textField; textField.placeholder = @"Email Address"; } else { // password textField.secureTextEntry = TRUE; label.text = @"Password:"; if (inputFieldType == Password){ textField.placeholder = @"Password"; passwordTextField = textField; } if (inputFieldType == ConfirmPassword){ textField.placeholder = @"Confirm Password"; confirmPasswordTextField = textField; } } ``` See screenshot: alt text http://grab.by/39WE
