I'm building android app for Show RSS feeds, in one activity , I write the RSS Link in EditText and click button, then appear the RSS feeds (the news).
When i enter the RSS link and click the button in the first time the appear the news normally , but my problem is when I Enter a new link & press button: the news of the new link appear under the old News (news of the first link i have been entered in the EditText).
But I want to erase the old news and appear the RSS feed of the new link when i press button.
Any idea?
Thanks in advance.
My code:
In MainActivity:
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
private static final String TAG = "MainActivity";
private static String rss_url = "http://www.thehindu.com/news/cities/chennai/chen-health/?service=rss";
ProgressDialog progressDialog;

ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,

list = new RSSListView(this);
adapter = new RSSListAdapter(this);
list.setAdapter(adapter);
list.setOnDataSelectionListener(new OnDataSelectionListener() {
public void onDataSelected(AdapterView parent, View v,
int position, long id) {
RSSNewsItem curItem = (RSSNewsItem) adapter.getItem(position);
String curTitle = curItem.getTitle();
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
"Selected : " + curTitle, 1000).show();
}
});
