Question
I'm writing my church's Android app, and I'm trying to use a ListView as a launchpad to view sermons online. The LV populates correctly, but there are two TextViews in each list item that aren't populated by the cursor - they have the same text in each list item. (They say "play audio" and "play video" to be exact.) I needed a way to click each of the TextViews and be sent to a certain webpage. I'm trying to add tags to each TextView, but I'm getting a NullPointerException when I try to access them from my ViewBinder. The tags all have different values.
Does anyone know how I can assign tags to these static TextViews?

Solution
Try using the view that is supplied from the method and find the view on that, something like this:
TextView playAudio = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.sermon_audio);
EDIT:
You may need to find the parent View first, then use findViewById on that, try something like this:
RelativeLayout parent = (RelativeLayout)view.getParent();
TextView playAudio = (TextView) parent.findViewById(R.id.sermon_audio);
