A snippet for what I do...
public HttpResponse updateGirl(String url, Pawn girl, int pawnID) {
HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPut httpput = new HttpPut(url);
// Execute the request
try {
List nameValuePairs = new ArrayList(
39);
nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("id", Integer
.toString(pawnID)));
.. Many nameValuePairs later.
httpput.addHeader("Content-Type",
"application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
httpput.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs,
HTTP.UTF_8));
HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httpput);
return response;
} catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
// e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {

Hope that helps. I struggled with it for a couple of weeks before I found

[android-beginners] Re: A Google Maps App
I'm sure it's possible. But a word of Warning. If you have never programmed for the Android platform you are in for a really steep learning curve dealing with mapviews.

[android-beginners] androidID
Is anyone else using this as a Unique identifier? Is there anyway to force this in the emulator?If not what are other people using?

After my third phone I can absolutely tell you that the NON paid apps do not follow. My guess is that the market relies on the AndroidID to associate downloads.

[android-beginners] Re: Where do I start
Depending on your development language of choice you will either need to start with a book on Java Programming or pick up one of the numerous books on Android Programming. http://pragprog.com/ has the Hello Android book and http://commonsware.com/has The Busy Coders series. Mark Murphy wrote the later and is all over these message boards. I have both and would recommend the same for anyone looking to get into this. The price is negligible when you realize what you get.

[android-beginners] Re: Clicks and Gestures on MapView...
My low tech solution was to set a flag with onTap that was readable by the other detectors. This let the know that I had picked the overlay item and to ignore the rest of the processing and cleared the flag on the way out. Actually it was a little more complicated than that but it was low tech and works for me.
