OnItemClickListener on ListView (Blog App Extra Credit)

I'm trying to add an onlick listener to the listview for the extra credit assignment. However all of my research uses a button to trigger the events but not the actual list view list.

Is this possible?

Hey Caleb, if I understand your question correctly, you have buttons inside a listview and you would like to set an on list item click on the listview and not the buttons themselves right? If so, then you can set the button's android:focusable="false"

Let me know if this solves it. :)

Do I have to add buttons? The instruction makes it sound like I can just add it by clicking on the list.


Clicks Ahoy!

See if you can add interactivity to your ListView using an OnItemClickListener. Display a message in a Toast, write something to the log, or even try navigating to a new activity.
