public class ItemListFragment extends android.app.ListFragment 
{
    ListView lv;
    Context c;
    List<Question> questions= new ArrayList<Question>();
    Integer[] Q_Id ;
    String[] AskerUserName =   {"Jack"      ,"John"    ,"Lio"      ,"Sam"         ,"Mike"        };
    String[] AnswererUserName ={"Jacob"     ,"Mario"   ,"Tom"      ,"Shon"        ,"Jasmine"     };

    String[] Answer =          {"jjjjjjjjjj","llllllll","fffffffff","eeeeeeeeeeee","oooooooooooo"};

    @Override
    public View onCreateView( LayoutInflater inflater, 
        ViewGroup container,
        Bundle savedInstanceState )
    {


        View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.frag1, container, false);


        lv = (ListView) view.findViewById(android.R.id.list);

        for (int i = 0;i<4;i++){
            int qid =  i;
            String AUName = AskerUserName[i].toString();
            String AnUName = AnswererUserName[i].toString();
            String Ans = Answer[i].toString();
            String Ques = Qusetion[i].toString();
            Question question = new Question(qid, AUName, AnUName, Ans, Ques);
            questions.add(question);




        }
        QuestionAdapter QuestAd = new QuestionAdapter(getActivity(),questions);
        lv.setAdapter(QuestAd);

        QuestAd.notifyDataSetChanged();




        return view;
    }

    @Override
    public void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        Intent i = new Intent(getActivity(),QuestionActivity.class);
        i.putStringArrayListExtra("answers", questions.get(position).getAnswers());
        i.putExtra("question", questions.get(position).getQuestion().toString());
        startActivity(i);
        super.onListItemClick(l, v, position, id);

        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.question_activity);

        Intent i = new Intent(); //This should be getIntent();

Answer 1

you can get rid of lv.setOnItemSelectedListener, since you are extending ListFragment you should override onListItemClick .

From the doc:

This method will be called when an item in the list is selected. Subclasses should override.  

here you can find the documentation

Answer 2

Here your class is extends with ListFragment so you need to override with onListItemClick instead of OnItemSelectedListener for ListView.
