Extras on demand in a Android Dialog



In one of the activities of my application the user can select the language. Since the app is only in 5 languages I'd like to do something like:





When the user press the button language show a dialog displaying the 5 main languages, and a extra option:"Show more languages". If the user select the last one then show the complete list.





I really dont know how to implement that keeping the action natural for the user, since reloading the dialog with all the languages can be confusing.





How can I make that? Thanks

  1. Look at how it is done in the Settings->Language&Keyboard->Select Language it might give you the right idea. Otherwise you can use context menus and sub-menus with lists to implement it.
    Remember that activities have to be restarted in order to apply the language.

  2. i think you could list all languages in a linearlayout surrounded by a scrollview, all hided and added to dialog. When user click button show more languages you could show the layout hided :)

Why is this Javascript much *slower* than its jQuery equivalent?

I have a HTML list of about 500 items and a "filter" box above it. I started by using jQuery to filter the list when I typed a letter (timing code added later): $('#filter').keyup( function() { var jqStart = (new Date).getTime(); var search = $(this).val().toLowerCase(); var $list = $('ul.ablist > li'); $list.each( function() { if ( $(this).text().toLowerCase().indexOf(search) === -1 ) $(this).hide(); else $(this).show(); } ); console.log('Time: ' + ((new Date).getTime() - jqStart)); } ); However, there was a couple of seconds delay after typing each letter (particularly the first letter). So I thought it may be slightly quicker if I used plain Javascript (I read recently that jQuery's each function is particularly slow). Here's my JS equivalent: document.getElementById('filter').addEventListener( 'keyup', function () { var jsStart = (new Date).getTime()...

Is it possible to have IF statement in an Echo statement in PHP

Thanks in advance. I did look at the other questions/answers that were similar and didn't find exactly what I was looking for. I'm trying to do this, am I on the right path? echo " <div id='tabs-".$match."'> <textarea id='".$match."' name='".$match."'>". if ($COLUMN_NAME === $match) { echo $FIELD_WITH_COLUMN_NAME; } else { } ."</textarea> <script type='text/javascript'> CKEDITOR.replace( '".$match."' ); </script> </div>"; I am getting the following error message in the browser: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_IF Please let me know if this is the right way to go about nesting an IF statement inside an echo. Thank you.
