Problem with creating a simple Menu in Browser view.

[Susan Smith]

Hi,

I started learning Android recently and created a project just for my testing.

The main page will be LoginPage.java, which has a submit button.
When the submit button is clicked, it will bring up WebPage.java (which has a WebView object to display the http site).
Until this point, everything looks ok.

But then I want to create a Menu in the WebPage view, where I can go back to the LoginPage view.
I override the onCreateOptionsMenu() and the onOptionsItemSelected().
But what shows up is the original default menu from the Android phone.

I'm wondering if anyone has any advice? Thanks in advance for all the help.
Below is my code: LoginPage.java + webPage.java

;--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------;

LoginPage.java:

package com.sample.android;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.text.Editable;
import android.view.View;
import android.webkit.WebView;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class LoginPage extends Activity 
{
	/** User name text view. **/
	private EditText mUserName;
	/** Password text view. **/
	private EditText mPassword;
	/** Button to submit login info. **/
	private Button mSubmitButton;
	/** Result text view. **/
	private TextView mResultTextView;
	
	private WebView webview;
	
	/** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) 
    {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
       
        mUserName = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.userNameEntry);
        mPassword = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.passwordEntry);
        mSubmitButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.submitButton);
        mSubmitButton.setOnClickListener(mSubmitListener);
        mResultTextView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.result);
    } // end onCreate()
    
    /** Submit button listener. **/
    private android.view.View.OnClickListener mSubmitListener = 
    	new android.view.View.OnClickListener() {
    	
    	public void onClick(View v)
    	{
    		try
    		{
    			Editable usernameVal = mUserName.getText();
    			Editable passwordVal = mPassword.getText();
    		
    			mResultTextView.setText(
    				"You entered username '" + usernameVal + "' with password '" + passwordVal + "'");
    			
    			Intent myIntent = new Intent(v.getContext(), WebPage.class);
    			startActivity(myIntent);
    		}
    		catch (Exception ex)
    		{
    			mResultTextView.setText(
    	    			"Exception: " + ex.getMessage()	
    	    			);
    		}
    	}
    }; // end mSubmitListener
    
} // end class LoginPage

WebPage.java:

package com.sample.android;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.KeyEvent;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.webkit.WebView;
import android.webkit.WebViewClient;

public class WebPage extends Activity 
{
    WebView webview;
	
    private static int MENU_MAIN_PAGE = 1;

    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) 
    {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.show_web);
       
    	webview = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
    	webview.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
    	webview.loadUrl("http://www.cnn.com");
    } // end onCreate()
    
    /* Creates the menu items */
    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
        menu.add(0, MENU_MAIN_PAGE, 0, "Back to main page");
        return true;
    }

    /* Handles item selections */
    public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
        switch (item.getItemId()) {
        case 1:
        	Intent myIntent = new Intent("LoginPage");
			startActivity(myIntent);
        	return true;
        }
        return false;
    }
   
} // end class WebPage
