    <p>I just learn how to working with ListView and parsing XML data in Java following this <a href="http://www.androidhive.info/2011/11/android-xml-parsing-tutorial/" rel="nofollow">tutorial</a>. However, I'm getting an error because the XML data contains some special characters. Could someone kindly advice me on this issue?</p> <p>This is my XML Data looks like.</p> <pre><code>&lt;menu&gt; &lt;item&gt; &lt;id&gt;1&lt;/id&gt; &lt;question&gt;What's my phone number?&lt;/question&gt; &lt;answer&gt;my phone number is "000-000-0000".&lt;/answer&gt; &lt;/item&gt; &lt;item&gt; &lt;id&gt;2&lt;/id&gt; &lt;question&gt;What's my fax number?&lt;/question&gt; &lt;answer&gt;my fax number is "000-000-0000"&lt;/answer&gt; &lt;/item&gt; &lt;item&gt; &lt;id&gt;3&lt;/id&gt; &lt;question&gt;What's my mailing address?&lt;/question&gt; &lt;answer&gt;my address here&lt;/answer&gt; &lt;/item&gt; &lt;item&gt; &lt;id&gt;4&lt;/id&gt; &lt;question&gt;What's my web address?&lt;/question&gt; &lt;answer&gt;https://mywebsite.com/Login/Login.aspx?cID=53044&amp;lng=en-US&lt;/answer&gt; &lt;/item&gt; &lt;/menu&gt; </code></pre> <p>And here is the Java class.</p> <pre><code>public class FaqsQuestionsActivity extends ListActivity { static final String URL = "http://myweb.com/faq_list.xml"; // XML node keys static final String KEY_ITEM = "item"; // parent node static final String KEY_ID = "id"; static final String KEY_QUESTION = "question"; static final String KEY_ANSWER = "answer"; @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.faqs_questions); ArrayList&lt;HashMap&lt;String, String&gt;&gt; menuItems = new ArrayList&lt;HashMap&lt;String, String&gt;&gt;(); XMLParser parser = new XMLParser(); String xml = parser.getXmlFromUrl(URL); // getting XML Document doc = parser.getDomElement(xml); // getting DOM element NodeList nl = doc.getElementsByTagName(KEY_ITEM); for (int i = 0; i &lt; nl.getLength(); i++) { HashMap&lt;String, String&gt; map = new HashMap&lt;String, String&gt;(); Element e = (Element) nl.item(i); map.put(KEY_ID, parser.getValue(e, KEY_ID)); map.put(KEY_QUESTION, parser.getValue(e, KEY_QUESTION )); map.put(KEY_ANSWER, parser.getValue(e, KEY_ANSWER)); menuItems.add(map); } ListAdapter adapter = new SimpleAdapter(this, menuItems, R.layout.faqs_question_list, new String[] { KEY_QUESTION, KEY_ANSWER }, new int[] {R.id.question, R.id.answer}); setListAdapter(adapter); ListView lv = getListView(); lv.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() { public void onItemClick(AdapterView&lt;?&gt; parent, View view, int position, long id) { String question = ((TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.question)).getText().toString(); String answer = ((TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.answer)).getText().toString(); Intent in = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), FaqsAnswersActivity.class); in.putExtra(KEY_QUESTION, question); in.putExtra(KEY_ANSWER, answer); startActivity(in); } }); } } </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
