Json Data in dialog and not activity

I was just wondering if its possible to show the response of webservice, a json formated, to a custom dialog, example opening hours of a restaurant?

The problem is I have a listview and onClicklistener, it opens new activity and there I parsing data from webservice. inside the activity is a button where I getting hours from again from webservice. So I was wondering instead of opening new activity for hours, its possible to pars the json data to custom dialog/alert or sth like this? instead of a new activity?

If I understand you correctly, no. A Dialog needs an Activity. What you can do is create an Activity and give it a Dialog Theme. All you have to do is add 

      @android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Dialog"

to your <activity> tag in your manifest. This will give the look of a Dialog with the functionality of an Activity
