I am having an issue binding my JSON data Object to a listView fragment. I'm getting an NPE at line 100 where I bind to my Simple Adapter. I have tried various ways about doing this but have been unsuccessful. According to the docs:
You must use ListFragment.setListAdapter() to associate the list with an adapter. Do not directly call ListView.setAdapter() or else important initialization will be skipped.
I'm sure that is my issue but I don't know how to go about correcting my code. Below is the NPE and my activity. Please any help will be appreciated, esp some code example because I'm learning as I go....
