i try to display a two-pane UI design. I try to add two fragments in a linear layout with a weight. However, the linear layout seems to ignore the weight. How do i correct it?? Thanks

my layout:

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal" >

<fragment
    class="com.usci.view.fragment.CatalogFragment"
    android:id="@+id/fragment_catalog"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:layout_weight="0.2">
</fragment>

<fragment
    class="com.usci.education.TestFragment1"
    android:id="@+id/fragment_test"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:layout_weight="0.8">
</fragment>

</LinearLayout>

Solution:

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal" >

<fragment
    class="com.usci.view.fragment.CatalogFragment"
    android:id="@+id/fragment_catalog"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:layout_weight="8">
</fragment>

<fragment
    class="com.usci.education.TestFragment1"
    android:id="@+id/fragment_test"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"

    always , when you use weights , set the width/height (of the children) to 0px ,and prefer integers for the weights .

    so , the solution is :

    <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal" >

<fragment
    class="com.usci.view.fragment.CatalogFragment"
    android:id="@+id/fragment_catalog"
    android:layout_width="0px"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:layout_weight="2">
</fragment>

<fragment
    class="com.usci.education.TestFragment1"
    android:id="@+id/fragment_test"
    android:layout_width="0px"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:layout_weight="8">
</fragment>

</LinearLayout>
