I have created 2 java based apps for android which are both working independantly.
The first, a simple app with a few text field and boxes with onClick features to switch between pages,
the second a JSON list (yes thats all thats in the app)
I am trying to put the JSON list app in the middle of the 1st app, but when I click on the onClick button aimed at my JSON.java page, it crashes out, but when I run the JSON.java page from its own app, it runs fine.
Sorry to everyone for me dumping loads of code into this, but I am new to android, and don't know to much about it, so not sure which parts are/are not relevant.
