Question

Hi,

How can I create a speech-bubble like context menu like in the Safari-Browser on the iPhone/iPad.

I would like to create a kind of context help.

That "speech-bubble like context menu like in the Safari-Browser" is a UIPopoverController. It is only available on iPad. See

• Using Popovers to Display Content

A UIActionSheet can also be shown as popover style with -showFromBarButtonItem:animated: or -showFromRect:inView:animated: on the iPad.
