Recently I did some digging into how I could customize the response of UITableView to touch events. Mostly, I wanted the touch to be forwarded on to a sub-view I’d stuck on a UITableViewCell, which is a tricky and somewhat quixotic journey that I think every iPhone app developer needs to make. In the end, I decided I didn’t like the functionality I was implementing, but on the way I found a great tutorial by app developer John Griffiths on how to get there.
