title: How do I get a React Native TextInput to maintain focus after submit?
body: <p>I could explain what I am trying to do, but <a href="https://facebook.github.io/react/docs/more-about-refs.html" rel="noreferrer">this ReactJS example</a> is a walkthrough of exactly what I want. The problem is I can't figure out what the equivelant would be for react native.</p>
  
  <p>Basically, when I press return in the TextInput, I want the text cleared and focus maintained.</p>
  
  <p>Any thoughts?</p>
