Is there a way to do this? Is there a way to use a tabhost and activities for each tabs content and pass values via extras. If so can someone post a link how to?

Use Intent.putExtra(..):

intent.putExtra("keyName", "somevalue");

This method is overloaded and takes various types as second argument: int, byte, String, various arrays..

To get the data out use appropriate getXYZExtra(). For String this is:

getStringExtra(String keyName)

  • I had it like that but the second tab when it shows the second activity does not know the values are available I have even read in another post that the intents are set when the tabs are built and extras can not be added. So how does one build a two tab app such that tab one is inputs and tab two is results – Dean-O Dec 26 '10 at 21:24
