copied!<p>The way to handle button clicks is to assign it an OnClickListener, like so :</p> <pre><code>button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View arg0) { //start a new activity or replace the Fragment in view } }; </code></pre> <p>For your particular case, you could use <a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/components/fragments.html" rel="nofollow">Fragments</a> to show each page, using a <a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/FragmentTransaction.html#replace%28int,%20android.app.Fragment,%20java.lang.String%29" rel="nofollow">FragmentTransaction to replace the Fragment in view</a>. If you use an Activity, you would have 10 OnCLickListeners (one for each page), so I wouldn't advise it.</p> <p>Alternatively, you could just use a swipe gesture to switch Fragment, thus getting rid of your button. <a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/v4/view/ViewPager.html" rel="nofollow">ViewPager</a> is designed for this, and you could use <a href="https://github.com/JakeWharton/Android-ViewPagerIndicator" rel="nofollow">Jake Wharton's ViewPagerIndicator</a> library to give a visual feedback of which page is in view.</p> <p>If you need me to clarify something, don't hesitate to ask ;-)</p> <p><strong>EDIT :</strong> As per your request, here's how I would do it using Fragments:</p> <p>Create a Fragment for each page. You can re-use the same layout each time, containing only a TextView with the text for your page, with width and height set as match_parent. In the fragment's onCreateView, you get a reference to the textview like so :</p> <pre><code>@Override public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) { View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_page_layout, container, false); // Get references to layout elements pageTextView = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.article_paragraph_title); return view; } </code></pre> <p>and in the onActivityCreated :</p> <pre><code>pageTextView.setText(yourTextForThisPage); </code></pre> <p>In your activity you can either set a button to switch page, or use a ViewPager. The main idea is that the Activity will take care of switching Fragment, thus changing the text in view, since every time you change Fragment, a new Fragment should be created an replace the preceding one. You can use the links I provide above to get you started, or follow <a href="http://www.edumobile.org/android/android-beginner-tutorials/view-pager-example-in-android-development/" rel="nofollow">THIS TUTORIAL</a>, which seems to achieve more or less what I was trying to explain. I hope this clarifies a bit...</p>
