Elipse is saying something is wrong and I understand that iI need to put my market link but the button still doesn't work

I couldn't post it on the same page here is the link for the original question

Use application to rate it on market

Unless you post the actual code you are trying, nobody here can help. We're not mind readers and simply showing something which says "**...my idea of the code**" is of no use. — Squonk, May 16 '12 at 17:55

You have just add your app package name...

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=your packagename

And call using Intent.ACTION_VIEW

String str ="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zeustechnocrats.quickfoods";
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(str)));

This was helpful for me to do the same thing using an image button. here the code I used.

    final ImageButton mybutton = (ImageButton) findViewById(R.id.imageButton); 
    mybutton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {

            String str ="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ws.crandell.newspaperpuzzles";
            startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(str)));

        }

    });

Example code you can use.

Change your_package_name to your.package.name. E.g. com.example.myapp

Java File:

public void ratebutton(View v) {
        Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW)
                .setData(Uri
                        .parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=your_package_name"));
        startActivity(intent);
    }

Layout file:

<Button
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:onClick="ratebutton"
        android:text="@string/rate"
        android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal" />

strings.xml:

 <string name="rate">Rate with 5 stars please</string>
