Hi,

thanks for the great tutorial.. but say I wanted to place a button at the bottom of the list. What would I have to change? Would i have to create a layout with a Linear Layout, in it a ListView and a Button on the bottom, and then scrap the row.xml layout and put the list in the listview? (I tried these things and they didnt seem to work)

Any help is appreciated,
Thank you

Hi,
Thanks for your samples, they are very helpful. Is there a way to use listFiles to return files in a uri directory? Say there are .jpg files at http://ficticious.myweb.gov/images I don't know what the files are called but I want a list of their names so I can nab them if I want.

for this :

int selectionRowID = (int) this.getSelectedItemId();

change in this:

int selectionRowID = position;

First of all: Great tutorial!

But I do have a problem. When I try to access the following folders in the root, the program crashes:
/config
/cache
/data
(and some other)

I have a feeling that it has something to do with permissions, but I can't figure out if this is the problem.

I have tried accessing the folders using OI File Manager, with no problems.

The program crashes on the emulator, and on my HTC Hero

Could somebody help me figure out how to write code for a file browser for that would search through a specific folder (eg. the pictures folder)???? I am new to Android and any help would be much appreciated !!!!

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the tutorial. I am a newbie. Can you please post the updated AndroidFileBrowser.java for Android 2.3.3.

Instead of using ListActivity.getSelectionRowId() which was removed from API by Android development team or ListActivity.getSelectedItemPosition() or getSelectedItemID() which have other problems returning 0 and -1 at times, I was able to use getItemAtPosition(position) following this example -> http://www.bestwebdesignseo.com/code-samples/solution-to-getselectionrowid-android-method-error/

It requires re-writing of the onListItemClick which may have other potential consequences for other developers to mitigate.

This is great tutorial . I have a question : What's different in ABSOLUTE, RELATIVE in your tutorial ?
