How do i have an AutoComplete selection based on alphabetic instead of fixed switch cases? The situation is, everything working except when i input keyword with "B" showing Badrul as first suggestion but when clicked it will still refer to the first switch cases which is opening up Adidas.class instead of Badrul.class Please help, i am new in this. Is AutoComplete suitable for my requirement? public class Search extends Activity { public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceSate) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceSate); setContentView(R.layout.searchshop); AutoCompleteTextView autoComplete = (AutoCompleteTextView) findViewById(R.id.autoCompleteTextView1); ArrayAdapter adapter = new ArrayAdapter(this, R.layout.list_item, shops); autoComplete.setAdapter(adapter); autoComplete.setThreshold(1); autoComplete.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() { @Override public void onItemClick(AdapterView arg0, View arg1, int position, long arg3) { switch(position) { case 0: startActivity(new Intent(Search.this, Adidas.class)); break; case 1: startActivity(new Intent(Search.this, Affin.class)); break; case 2: startActivity(new Intent(Search.this, AlamArt.class)); break; case 3: startActivity(new Intent(Search.this, Badrul.class)); break; } } }); } static final String[] shops = new String[] { "Adidas", "Affin Bank", "Alam Art Gallery", "Badrul" }; }
