[android-developers] Re: How to dismiss the soft keyboard

Thanks!

I used:

txtQuery.setOnKeyListener(this);
...
...
public boolean onKey(View arg0, int keyCode, KeyEvent event)
{
if ((event.getAction() == KeyEvent.ACTION_UP) && (keyCode ==
KeyEvent.KEYCODE_ENTER))
{
doSearch();
...
...

And used the answer from the previous post to hide the keyboard
