[android-developers] Re: Search and display content from XML feed from server

since you already show them in lists, i assume you're using a list adapter... these already support searching (filtering).

If instead you're creating the rows manually (which isn't the best idea anyhow), you should keep all the parsed information in a data structure, which then can be searched and used to update the list accordingly.

Hi there,

I need a little help please. I want to search and display content that is coming from an XML feed on a server, and I'm not sure what the best way would be to implement this on Android.

I have an app that simply parses XML data from a server, and the segments are shown in lists on each tab, similar to the image below.

I have implemented a search feature in the ActionBar, but I'm not sure how to get a handle on the search data results, as the XML data is simply parsed and displayed on each tab list.

Any ideas how this should be approached for search? i.e. would i need to do it in such a way, that after the XML feed is parsed within, then somehow extract some segments that contain the search term?

Any tips appreciated.

Thanks,

Darren.
