So for positions 0 and 1, I have inflated 2 different EditText boxes. </p> <p>My problem is I can't get the text that is typed in both the boxes.</p> <p>The box allows me to type continuously but when I click the Sign-In button, the strings I get from the username and password boxes using getText are both null!</p> <p><a href="http://img801.imageshack.us/img801/5544/shot000005w.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Sign-In screen shot http://img801.imageshack.us/img801/5544/shot000005w.png</a> <a href="http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/3825/shot000006y.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Username Toast is blank http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/3825/shot000006y.png</a> <a href="http://img542.imageshack.us/img542/8804/shot000007.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Password Toast is blank http://img542.imageshack.us/img542/8804/shot000007.png</a></p> <p>Here's the get getChildView from the CustomExpandableAdapter: </p> <pre><code>public View getChildView(int groupPosition, int childPosition, boolean isLastChild, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) { v = null; position = 0; position=getChildId(groupPosition, childPosition); if(position==0) //draw the username editbox { v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.username, parent, false); Element c = (Element)getChild( groupPosition, childPosition ); username = (EditText)v.findViewById( R.id.username); if( username != null ) username.setHint(c.getElement()); } else if(position==1) { if(convertView == inflater.inflate(R.layout.password, parent, false)) return convertView; v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.password, parent, false); convertView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.password, parent, false); Element c = (Element)getChild( groupPosition, childPosition ); password = (EditText)v.findViewById( R.id.password); if( password != null ) password.setHint(c.getElement()); } else if (position>1023 && position<1028) { v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.child_row, parent, false); Element c = (Element)getChild( groupPosition, childPosition ); et = (EditText)v.findViewById( R.id.et); if( et != null ) et.setHint(c.getElement()); } else if(position==1028) { v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.gender, parent, false); ArrayAdapter<CharSequence> adapter = ArrayAdapter.createFromResource( context, R.array.gender, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item ); adapter.setDropDownViewResource( android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item ); s = (Spinner) v.findViewById( R.id.spinner_gend ); s.setAdapter( adapter ); } else if(position==2) //Forgot Button { v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.forgot, parent, false); Button forgot = (Button)v.findViewById(R.id.fpb); forgot.setOnClickListener(this); } else if(position==3) //Sign-in Button { v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.sign_in_button, parent, false); ImageButton sign_in = (ImageButton)v.findViewById(R.id.sign_in_button); sign_in.setOnClickListener(this); } return v; } </code></pre> <p>and later on in the code I have the onClick of the Sign in button:</p> <pre><code>case R.id.sign_in_button: { String user_name = username.getText().toString(); String pass_word=password.getText().toString(); Toast.makeText(context,"u:"+ user_name, 3000).show(); Toast.makeText(context, "p:"+pass_word, 3000).show(); //Other unrelated Database Code } </code></pre> <p>Here the Toasts always show just u: and p:</p> <p>Someone help!</p>
