Question

I’m learning android development. I created a simple layout consisting of a button (id:button1). I added an OnClickListener to this button, which when clicked, shows the next page (layout). There appears to be no errors in the code, but when I run it, it simply crashes. I tried it using android 2.3.3 and 2.2 emulators, but no success. when I comment out the onclicklistener part, the app runs.
i searched through various sites and questions, but no success.
Here is the java code:

package com.sid.next;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;

public class mySplash extends Activity {
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
        final Button b1 = (Button)findViewById(R.id.button1);
        b1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onClick(View arg0) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                startActivity(new Intent("com.sid.next.SHOWMENU"));
            }
        });

    }
}

Edit1:
stacktrace

Edit2: main.xml

Edit3: [solved!] i didn’t have any contentview set for the myMenu.java activity. Thanks anyways!

edit4: changed android.R.id.button1 to R.id.button1
