Thanks.. I have an App Engine python script and my Android App requests text using a url + querystring and returns just simple text, depending on the query. That's easy I know how to do the App Engine part. And can display it in a WebView OK.
I want to display this text in a TextView on my Android and need specific code snippet to do it. I know that I need an Async or a Thread to do it, but I cannot find this basic example - they are either WebViews which I don't want or complex examples that I cannot unravel. Can someone point me at an easy source code example? TreKing? A 'word' answer would also be too hard for me. Thanks if I get an answer...
