Question

I can’t seem to use data that is in an EditText box.

I have one activity for entering a url and a submit button.

When the user clicks submit, a new activity opens as a WebView and should display the url that
the user typed in the EditText box.

This should be the simplest of tasks but I can’t find how to do it anywhere…

Answer 1

You can write below code

  Intent myIntent = new Intent(CurrentActivity.this, NextActivity.class);
  myIntent.putExtra("Url", edittext.getText());

And you can fetch this string in NextActivity using

  String url = this.getIntent().getExtras().getString("Url");
