Question

So this is the deal, I have tried looking at other threads like this one here
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12479909/how-to-make-list-header-and-footer-not-click-able

But it doesn’t work. I can’t manage to “do nothing on click”.

But the problem is not to handle what hapens when the list is clicked, that is that the list is giving feedback as if its been clicked (I.E lights up), and I don’t want that.

I don’t understand why the part below doesn’t work (I.E it is still selectable/clickable)

ViewGroup footer = (ViewGroup)inflater.inflate(R.layout.listview_footer_row, null, false);//This is not working as it should
        listView.addFooterView(footer);

Anyone have any idea why my footer is clickable/selectable despite i add te false statment to the method?

Here is my code

            }
        });

               if(position<Portfolio.getPortfolio().count()){//Just to check that I havn't clicked listFooter.
               System.out.println("Klicka i listan");
                Intent intent = new Intent(getActivity().getApplicationContext(),

                startActivity(intent);

           } 
        });

        buyButton = (Button)view.findViewById(R.id.buyNewShares);
        buyButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {public void onClick(View view) {

            buyShares();

        }});

      public static ShareHoldingAdapter getPortfolioFragmentShareHoldingAdapter(){

            </TableRow>
    </TableLayout>
</LinearLayout>

Answer 1

instead of using

addFooterView(v) 

use

List.addFooterView(v, data, isSelectable);

and set isselectable = false

List.addFooterView(v, null,false);

so your footerView is no longer selectable
