Any thoughts as to why that might be? On which fragment is getActivity() returning null? The ListFragment(?) on which you have the context menu, or the newly instantiated one? If it's the newly-instantiated one, that's not especially surprising, as it will not go through any of its lifecycle methods until the FragmentTransaction gets commit()'d and processing begins on it shortly thereafter. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Android 4.0 Programming Books: http://commonsware.com/books -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
