iphone text editing help

[Peter101]

Could anyone tell me what replaces the cursor keys on an iphone? For example, if I were writing a text or e-mail etc and I notice I have made an error a few words back, other than trying to touch the screen where the mistake has happened, which I find very tricky and can never seem to do acurately, is there another better way?

Thankyou.

Brilliant, thankyou. I always thought the magnifier that comes up on the screen was an aid for the partially sighted, so never bothered investigating it!
