Question

hi I’m just creating a header for a app that uses twitter and just wanting to know how to show the @ as text i put it in a string and it doesn’t like it

<string name="twit">@evosdfresh</string>

then i call this string it doesn’t work if i remove the @ it works so its the @ thats throwing it off

Answer 1

If you have the @ as the first character of the string, then you need to escape it with a backslash, e.g.

<string name="twit">\@evosdfresh</string>

If it’s in the middle of the string you don’t need the backslash.
