I have a simple dialog built with the compatibility libraries 
DialogFragment.
It holds only 

   1. EditText
   2. 2 buttons

When the dialog is shown, the edit text control has the focus.
At this point, I want to open the soft keyboard automatically.

Here is what I am doing within the onCreateView method :
    EditText et;
    et = (EditText)v.findViewById(R.id.txtAddress);
    Activity act = getActivity();
    if(act != null)
    {
        InputMethodManager imm = 
(InputMethodManager)act.getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
        if(imm != null)
            imm.showSoftInput(et, InputMethodManager.SHOW_FORCED);
    }

Even though I get to the showSoftInput step with no problem, the keyboard 
is still not displayed.

So, how can I correctly get the soft keyboard to be shown ?
