App Chrashes: IlegalStateException Error

Question

I receive the following error:

Process: com.example.myweatherapp.myweatherapp, PID: 1263
    java.lang.IllegalStateException: Could not execute method of the activity
Caused by: android.os.NetworkOnMainThreadException

While trying to run my App. What my App should is to display data from an XML. The XML is on web, so I have to fetch it first by putting URL in there. Before that I check if phone has Internet Connection.

If yes, then proceed with fetchXML and when done, store it also in /res/raw/dataxml . 
If not, then start handlingStoredXML (I have put the file in /res/raw/dataxml).

When I try to run the App it chrashes.

MainActivity class:link to fiddle MainActivity code

DownloadXML class: link to fiddle DownloadXML code

Sorry I dont know any other source where I could easily store my code and share it here. But it is too big, to just copy it here.

Hope someone can help me out. I have browsed about it on here, and came across AsyncTask, but I dont know how to implement it in my code.

LOGCAT:

class LoadData extends AsyncTask<String, String, String>
{

    @Override
    protected String doInBackground(String... params) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        dxml = new DownloadXML();
        in_loc = inloc.getText().toString();
        dxml.checkInetConnection(this,in_loc);
        return null;
    }
    @Override
    protected void onPostExecute(String result) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
             outloc.setText(hxml.getLocation());
             outtemp.setText(hxml.getTemperature());
        super.onPostExecute(result);
    }
}

and than

case R.id.btn_search:
             new LoadData().execute();
              break;

Thanks @Ravi : Yes, I read about it: [link](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9671546/asynctask-android-example)[/link], **however**, I dont know how to use it in my case. The part you copied here from my code, is inside a `switch` case statement - I dont know how to implement Async here. Any help? – David Kasabji Nov 12 '14 at 12:44
put data in onPostExecute() or put it in runonuithread() both are same, you can use it as per your needs. – Ravi Nov 12 '14 at 12:49
I get this error now: `Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'java.lang.String com.example.myweatherapp.myweatherapp.HandleXML.getTemperature()' on a null object reference` **LINE:** onPostExecute – David Kasabji Nov 12 '14 at 13:15
that is because hxml.getLocation(). – Ravi Nov 12 '14 at 13:17
you dint initialize hxml, check – Ravi Nov 12 '14 at 13:18
I figured yes, but I dont know what could be wront with m getLocation(), it's just a getter method in HandleXML class. It should return the location from the XML file – David Kasabji Nov 12 '14 at 13:18
but u should initialise it, like hxml=new HandleXML() – Ravi Nov 12 '14 at 13:19

Read you comment later. I will accept your answer, as now it works! Thank you very much Ravi! – David Kasabji Nov 12 '14 at 13:22
can you maybe help me out more? Some other errors have occured? Now I get `Invalid stream or encoding: java.io.IOException: closed ` in `handlingOnlineXML(HandleXML.java:56)` is there a way we can use chat for this conversation? – David Kasabji Nov 12 '14 at 13:48
