TabActivity not starting activity when tab widget touched

Question

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_uicreate_session);
TabHost tabHost = getTabHost();
TabSpec sessionTab = tabHost.newTabSpec("Sessions");
sessionTab.setIndicator("Sessions");
Intent i = new Intent().setClass(this, TabSessions.class);
sessionTab.setContent(i);
tabHost.addTab(sessionTab);
}

When I click on 'Sessions' nothing happens, no stacktrace, nothing.

I am not using fragments because I want to target devices on as low as sdk version 8.

Answer 1

Issue was fixed by moving to the fragment layout.
