I have created a search bar and and added the text box as its subview.

UIAlertView * myAlertView = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@" "
message:@" "
delegate:self
cancelButtonTitle:nil
otherButtonTitles:nil, nil];
UISearchBar *myTextField = [[UISearchBar alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(30.0, 35.0, 180.0, 35.0)];
UIButton *searchbtn = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(230.0, 35.0, 40.0, 35.0)];
[myTextField setBackgroundColor:[UIColor whiteColor]];
[myAlertView setBackgroundColor:[UIColor grayColor]];
[searchbtn setBackgroundColor:[UIColor grayColor]];
[myAlertView addSubview:myTextField];
[myAlertView addSubview:searchbtn];


If there is any other better way please let me know.

There is a better way:

UIAlertView *myAlertView = [[[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Keyword Search"
message:@""
delegate:self
cancelButtonTitle:nil
otherButtonTitles:@"Search", nil] autorelease];

myAlertView.alertViewStyle = UIAlertViewStylePlainTextInput;
[myAlertView show];


And in the Delegate:

- (void)alertView:(UIAlertView *)alertView didDismissWithButtonIndex:(NSInteger)buttonIndex
NSString *searchTerm = [alertView textFieldAtIndex:0].text;
