You should consider that this is not the intended sue of the headerView and that an implementation such as that might result in rejection from the AppStore as a result of a HIG violation. Given that the dimensions of a header are intended to be small, it is probably better to consider a restructuring of your view. Having said that, there is no easy way to do it short of hand detecting touch events and determining the geometry yourself, then executing a selector based on the geometry - in short, rolling your own button class.
