Question

In my application i am inflating a web view into a list view and have set long press click event to the web view. On long press i am duplicating a item to appear on the list view. as shown in the image.

I want to know the clicked item position so that i can make the duplicate view appear exactly above the clicked item, but now it appears on the first item in the list.

the item in grey is the duplicated item, i have clicked on the 10th item and it appears on the 1st item. how would i make it appear on the 10th item

wv.setOnLongClickListener(new OnLongClickListener() {

            @Override
            public boolean onLongClick(View v) {
                duplicateView.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
                Log.d("lvsectionTwo "+lvsectionTwo.getScrollY(),"log");
                WebView wv = (WebView) duplicateView.findViewById(R.id.wv1);
                wv.loadData("item "+position, "text/html", null);
                wv.setBackgroundColor(Color.DKGRAY);

                ![enter image description here][2]



                return true;
            }
        });
        return view;
    }

Get the y position of view by:
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/View.html#getLocationInWindow%28int%5B%5D%29

it would require an array of integer of length 2
and x, and y co-ordinates would be stored in that array object, now use that object to get Position of view

private OnItemLongClickListener onlongpressed = new OnItemLongClickListener() {

            @Override
            public boolean onItemLongClick(AdapterView<?> arg0, View view,
                            int position, long id) {
                    duplicateView = ((LayoutInflater) getBaseContext().getSystemService(
                                    LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE)).inflate(R.layout.dragview, null);
                    frlayout.addView(duplicateView);
                    int[] dimensions=new int[2];
                    getLocationInWindow (dimensions);
                    FrameLayout.LayoutParams layoutParams = frlayout.getLayoutParams();
                    layoutParams.setMargins(0, dimensions[1]-20, 0, 0);
                    duplicateView.setLayoutParams(layoutParams);
                    duplicateView.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
                    WebView wv = (WebView) duplicateView.findViewById(R.id.wv1);
                    wv.setBackgroundColor(Color.DKGRAY);
                    wv.loadData("Item "+position, "text/html", null);
                    return true;
            }
    };
