import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ListView;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.net.Uri;
public class CustomListActivity extends ListActivity {
protected String[] mUrls = { "http://www.teamtreehouse.com", "http://developer.android.com", "http://www.github.com" };
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_custom_list);
ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, mUrls);
setListAdapter(adapter);
}
@Override
protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
super.onListItemClick(l, v, position, id);
String maylo = mUrls.getStringArray(position);
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setData(Uri.parse("mUrls"));
startActivity(intent);
}
}
I'm stuck because I don't know how to go about setting the position the URL is in when tapped. please help! this is the code that i have but i'm confused about what to do. Thanks! edit: I have been trying some crazy things.. I updated the code here because it gives better context. this isn't even a try anymore.

Treehouse Project ReviewerYou are really close, but have two problems in your code.
- You aren't retrieving the String from the mUrls[] array correctly. Try
String maylo = mUrls[position];
- In
Uri.parse()
you want to pass in yourmaylo
String variable that you created.
This should point you in the right direction. Let me know if you need more help. Keep coding!
