Question

I want the user to enter a string into an EditText into a popup. I have taken a look in Android Developers here .

But this kind of popup is not explained. How can I make it?

Answer 1

On the same page you linked to, check out how they say to create a custom dialog.

Create an XML layout for the dialog that has an EditText. Then show it:

Context mContext = getApplicationContext();
Dialog dialog = new Dialog(mContext);

dialog.setContentView(R.layout.custom_dialog);
dialog.setTitle("Custom Dialog");

dialog.show();
