How to make a button redirect to another XML layout

I'm making a button in xml(res / layout / activity_home.xml), like this:

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    tools:context=".HomeActivity" >
    <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/imageView1"
        android:src="@drawable/schkopwide" 
        android:contentDescription="@string/HTI"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/button1"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
        android:layout_centerVertical="true"
        android:layout_marginLeft="78dp"
        android:onclick="Intent i = new Intent(activity_store.xml);
        startActivity(i);"
        android:text="@string/HTI" />
</RelativeLayout>

so what should I add into this xml to let it redirect to another xml page (res / layout / activity_store.xml)?

Thank you

If you Want to show two different layouts in Same Activity, then ViewSwitcher is best layout.

You can add multiple layouts in ViewSwithcher. And Replace them by using viewswitcher.next(); function.

<ViewSwitcher

android:id="@+id/viewswitcher"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >

<!--   Add Two View’s Here -- >

</ViewSwitcher>

You can take reference from this link: http://abhiandroid.com/ui/viewswitcher

A simple way would be to create an Activity with another xml attached to it and then use intent.

You can't add the launch of an Intent inside the onclick parameter in XML. You have to do it by code.

In your code:

    Button button = (Button)findViewById(R.id.button1);
    button.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
        public void onClick(View v) {
            Intent i = new Intent(this, ActivityStore.class);
            startActivity(i);
        }
    });

And in the OnCreate of the ActivityStore class, put this

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_store);
    }

NOTE: I supposed that yous activity_store class is called ActivityStore

Try this,

Statically include XML layouts inside other XML layouts. use include. Add the below code in your activity_store.xml

  <include layout="@layout/activity_home"/>

Sure you will get solution.

You need to check on Android documentation :

  • Activity
  • OnClickListener
  • Intent

http://developer.android.com/training/index.html

Good luck.

Try out as below:

 <Button
    android:id="@+id/button1"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
    android:layout_centerVertical="true"
    android:layout_marginLeft="78dp"
    android:onclick="start"
    android:text="@string/HTI" />

In your main activity :

  Button button = (Button)findViewById(R.id.button1);
button.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
    public void onClick(View v) {
        Intent i = new Intent(this, ActivityStore.class);
        startActivity(i);
    }
});

Here is your ActivityStore Class code: 

 public class ActivityStore extends Activity {
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_store);
         }
       }

Also add the activity into your mainfest file.

<activity
        android:name=".ActivityStore"
        android:label="@string/app_name"/ >
