JSON Parsed Data not showing in ListFragment

I have used a MYSQL Database and connected it to my Android App using PHP. I added a sample row in the table and the PHP Script is returning JSON. I have tried my best in parsing the JSON and displaying it in a list. But it does not seem to be working. Able to run the App - But does not display content - Only shows the Dialog. It seems to work in Case of an Activity - What changes should be made to make it work for a Fragment. Here is my LogCat when I open up the fragment - http://prntscr.com/3f6k0a .

EDIT :
Got my code to work. The Problem was with the JSON Structure. I did not Navigate properly and this gave me a "No Value for message" Error. For others who might be having same issues - Remember that when you have { in your JSON , you use JSONArray and when you have [ you use JSONObject. You need to navigate module wise through your JSON.

try this code
pass json string to this method . it will work
public JSONObject getJSONfromURL(String url)
{
InputStream is = null;
JSONObject jObj = null;
String json = "";
try {
// defaultHttpClient
DefaultHttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpGet httpget= new HttpGet(url);
HttpResponse httpResponse = httpClient.execute(httpget);
HttpEntity httpEntity = httpResponse.getEntity();
is = httpEntity.getContent();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
try {
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is, "UTF-8"), 8);
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
String line = null;
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
sb.append(line + "\n");
}
is.close();
json = sb.toString();
} catch (Exception e) {
}
try {
jObj = new JSONObject(json);

Log.e("JSON Parser", "Error parsing data " + e.toString());

Notify me if weather is gonna rain

Hi everyone i just want to ask, how will i be able to notify my phone
if its gonna rain like when you send a request for the current weather
the request should run on background and if its gonna rain then it will notify.
Can anyone give some hints or any tutorial for me
to able to send a request through a service and notify me
if its gonna rain please share some ideas
cause i really need it and thank you.
i have done a class for requesting the current location and i use openweathermap API for me to get the current weather.

See in this way you can get the weather report . For running the same thing in service at regular interval
you need to merge two code

How to parse same name tag in Android XML DOM Parsing?

I am not able to parse my XML here. It returns "Item" only.
My AndroidActivity cannot be shown as it is very big. That's why I have only shown the part which is responsible for parsing.
My XML Looks like this :
<MyResource>
<Item>First</Item>
<Item>Second</Item>
</MyResource>
My ActivityClass method:
public class ShowItems extends Activity{
ListView lv;
ListAdapter adapter;
static final String KEY_RESOURCE = "MyResource"; // parent node
static final String KEY_ITEM = "Item";
ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> mylist = new ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>>();
String[] from={KEY_ITEM };
int[] to={R.id.mylist_item};
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.showitems);
lv=(ListView) findViewById(R.id.lv_items);
parseXML();
adapter = new SimpleAdapter(this, mylist,R.layout.list_item,from , to);
lv.setAdapter(adapter);
}
private void parseXML() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
XMLParser parser = new XMLParser();
final String URL="http://10.0.2.2:8080/MySite/xml";
String xml = parser.getXmlFromUrl(URL);
Document doc = parser.getDomElement(xml);
NodeList nl = doc.getElementsByTagName(KEY_RESOURCE);
for (int i = 0; i < nl.getLength(); i++) {
HashMap<String, String> map = new HashMap<String, String>();
Element e = (Element) nl.item(i);
map.put(KEY_ITEM, parser.getValue(e, KEY_ITEM));
mylist.add(map); }
}

I am not able to parse my XML here. What is the problem here?
It returns "Item" only.
What do I need to do in my ActivityClass especially in this part of the code?
String xml = parser.getXmlFromUrl(URL);
Document doc = parser.getDomElement(xml);
NodeList nl = doc.getElementsByTagName(KEY_RESOURCE);
for (int i = 0; i < nl.getLength(); i++) {
HashMap<String, String> map = new HashMap<String, String>();
Element e = (Element) nl.item(i);
map.put(KEY_ITEM, parser.getValue(e, KEY_ITEM));
mylist.add(map); }

Your getValue() method gets MyResource element, from there, you need to get all Items under MyResource and do getElementValue(). Example code is:
public Map getValue(Element item, String str) {
NodeList n = item.getElementsByTagName(str);
for (int i = 0; i < n.getLength(); i++) {
System.out.println(getElementValue(n.item(i)));
}
//Here store it in list/map and return list/map instead of String
return list/MapHere;
}

Parse Imagelink in Cdata description tag Dom parsing

I want to retrieve the image link inside the description tag, my tags are all working, here is the sample of description tag:

NodeList nl = doc.getElementsByTagName(KEY_ITEM);
// looping through all item nodes <item>
for (int i = 0; i < nl.getLength(); i++) {
// creating new HashMap
HashMap<String, Spanned> map = new HashMap<String, Spanned>();
Element e = (Element) nl.item(i);
// adding each child node to HashMap key => value
map.put(KEY_TITLE, Html.fromHtml(parser.getValue(e, KEY_TITLE)));
map.put(KEY_PUBDATE, Html.fromHtml(parser.getValue(e, KEY_PUBDATE)));
String description = parser.getValue(e, KEY_DESCRIPTION);;
int index = description.indexOf("The material has been provided by InstaForex Company", 0);
description = description.substring(0, index-1);
map.put(KEY_DESCRIPTION, Html.fromHtml(description));
// adding HashList to ArrayList
menuItems.add(map);
}
// Adding menuItems to ListView
ListAdapter adapter = new SimpleAdapter(this, menuItems,
R.layout.list_item,
new String[] { KEY_TITLE, KEY_PUBDATE }, new int[] {
R.id.name, R.id.cost });
setListAdapter(adapter);

I am doing everything in background using doInBackground() where to use onPostExecute()

I am trying to show JSON data into Mapview, but always getting blank map.
I knew that to populate I need to use onPostExecute() in my activity but I am confuse where I need to put onPostExecute() method and what are the lines I need to place in that.
Please someone make these changes, below I have written my code, advance thanks to viewers and readers
JSON Data:-
{
"maps": [
{
"title": "Place One",
"latitude" : "46.483742",
"longitude" : "7.663157",
"country": "Switzerland"
},

I understand your problem, the following code is how to get the json data and showing in a listview. It is helpful for you to show when you will write the PostExecute Method. you have to set the overlay items in PostExecute method.
