Weird bug

Not sure why this is happening, but whenever I click on say "french toast" I get a "german pancakes" toast. So I logged the index for the things that I'm clicking, and whenever I click the very first item, supposedly, the index should be 0. But what I'm logging is 7. And then when I click on some other item, I'm also logging 7. Any ideas as to what I'm doing?

Ok, never mind, silly me. The mIndex field should be a member of the nested class. Can anyone explain why the mIndex field has to be inside the ListViewHolder class? Why does it act buggy when declaring it inside the ListAdapter class?

Oh my god! Thnx! you saved my life. I've had this issue before with another app, and now I'm having it again, and couldn't resolve it. Thanks for finally finding a solution!

Recall that the Adapter is for the entire list, and the ViewHolders are for the individual items. If you make mIndex a member of the adapter, it will be set to whatever the index was for the last ViewHolder to be bound.
