Question

I have made a custom listView which which extends ListActivity and each row contains 2 textview and a button.

adapter = new SimpleAdapter(this, arraylist, R.layout.simplelistcustom, new String[] { "count","title"}, 
                new int[] {R.id.invisible, R.id.textView11 });
        setListAdapter(adapter);

When clicking on the List View row ,i get the selected row index and by using the index
i get the row child

protected void onListItemClick(ListView listView, View view, int position, long id)
    {
         super.onListItemClick(listView, view, position, id);
         String selection = listView.getItemAtPosition(position).toString(); 
  }

The output when i displayed in the “selection” in Logcat is

{count=6, title=etywewetr}

Problem is i want to seperate the content….How can this possible….plz help

thanx in advance

The getItemAtPosition method is returning you an element from your arraylist parameter; you just need to cast it to the correct type. Assuming your arraylist is a List<Map<String, String>> (which I suspect it is):

protected void onListItemClick(ListView listView, View view, int position, long id)
{
     super.onListItemClick(listView, view, position, id);
     Map<String, String> selection = (Map<String, String>) listView.getItemAtPosition(position);
     String count = selection.get("count");
     String title = selection.get("title");
}
