Problem when click to HTML links inside a ListView?

Question

i used the code below for my listview and textview .

Code:

textcontent.setText(Html.fromHtml(item.get_text()));
textcontent.setAutoLinkMask(Linkify.WEB_URLS);

XML:

<TextView
                android:id="@+id/txtview"
                android:autoLink="web"
                android:layout_width="fill_parent"
                android:layout_height="fill_parent"
                android:text="put your link here"/>

the link looks like url and i can click it but it generate this exception

android.util.AndroidRuntimeException: Calling startActivity() from outside of an Activity context requires the FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK flag.

any idea how to solve this problem ?

i have the List adapter in other class than the main Activity class and then i create object from the list adapter class from the main activity class and pass to it the context is that maybe the cause of the problem ? — Jimmy

Don't pass application context to ListAdapter constructor. Pass your main activity instead.

ListAdapter flareAdapter = new ListAdapter(LayoutInflater.from(activity), Items);

Even if you create adapter in some other class you should pass main activity reference anyway.

thanks for the hint , this is what i did and it works Context aContext ; aContext = this; ListAdapter flareAdapter = new ListAdapter(LayoutInflater.from(aContext), Items);

Thank you so much. I just pass the Activity as context to the adapter. new ListAdapter(this,etc..)

Are you sure the click caused that exception not something you want to launch?

As I see you need to add the flags to the intent (not sure what is your intent though)

intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);

If so, maybe give us more from the Exception log, let's see the stack trace.
