thanks for the response. i'm effectively calling contactView.findViewById(), as the call is from ContactView itself.
i tried the suggested inflate() usage, no change on the behaviour though. ContactView still claims it has no children, and therefore findViewById (contact_top_layout) doesn't find anything. >What Mark said. Also, the correct usage of inflate() in adapters is: > >inflate(layoutId, parent, false); > >Passing the parent (given to you as a parameter in getView()) allows >the UI toolkit to create the appropriate LayoutParams object.
