Re: [android-developers] Issue with the basic if statement

you defo got one thing right " I am confused" -:)  I actually thought I was writing code in java ?  so this now begs the question where do I write the code if not in MyFirstApp.main 

I am new to Java and XML

thanks for your prompt reply

You seem to be quite confused... You can't write an if statement
inside XML, it's not interactive (computation), it's just static XML.

What you need to do is put that in your java code,
