I'm a little bit of a beginner with Android. Just finding it hard to
suit what I'm doing. What I want my application to do is show a menu
when it executes, when one of the buttons on the menu is clicked I
want the application to go online to get the data which will populate
the textviews/scrollviews on the new screen. I can get info from
folders on my own computer but retrieving it online is proving too
complex for me.
