I am testing this on a SGSII, updated to 2.3.6. The behaviour is the same using either Samsung keypad or Swype keyboard. I also just ran the app in emulator (API level 8) where the keyboard is not shown at all in landsacpe mode (???) and emulator API level 10 where the keyboard situation is the same as with emulator API level 8. Is there something else I could do forcibly show the soft keyboard? > Much of this behavior is up to the IME, though, so someone could write an > IME that does what you say.

Will it have efect in my case as well? The way the built-in browser works is what I am targeting.
