I can't use findViewById

Why can't I use findViewById in this file?

Regfragment :

import android.support.v4.app.Fragment;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;


public class RegFragment extends Fragment {

EditText text1,text2,text3;
Button btn1;

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

    View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.reg_layout, container, false);

    return rootView;


}
}

and then I tried to make like this:

import android.support.v4.app.Fragment;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;


public class RegFragment extends Fragment {

EditText text1,text2,text3;
Button btn1;

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

    View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.reg_layout, container, false);

    return rootView;

    text1 = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.text1);   -----> ERROR....
}
}

I got error
Is it because I use Fragments ?

Just a simple way. you already inflated the layout. just inherit from that. find the code below

View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.reg_layout, container, false);
text1 = (EditText)rootView.findViewById(R.id.text1); 

return rootView;

you can not use it in fragment because it's method of activity

try following

in onActivityCreated()

text1 = (EditText) getView().findViewById(R.id.text1);

or in onCreateView()

text1 = (EditText) rootView.findViewById(R.id.text1);

Since you've used a separate View to inflate your layout, you are required to use that view to access all text views/image views/edit text present in that layout.

So to correct your code, you would need to tweak your code like shown below

View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.reg_layout, container, false);
text1 = (EditText) rootView.findViewById(R.id.text1);
return rootView;

you have used inflater

View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.reg_layout, container, false);

so use

text1 = (EditText) rootView.findViewById(R.id.text1); 
text2 = (EditText) rootView.findViewById(R.id.text2); 
text3 = (EditText) rootView.findViewById(R.id.text3);

and so on.

To access the view in the fragment you need to access it through your View class which contains your layout.

You need to change your code as below : 

public class RegFragment extends Fragment {

EditText text1,text2,text3;
Button btn1;

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

    View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.reg_layout, container, false);
    text1 = (EditText)rootView .findViewById(R.id.text1); 
    //Same way initialize other views also. 
    return rootView;
}
}

You have to do it before return statement like this way 

    View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.reg_layout, container, false);
   text1 = (EditText) rootView.findViewById(R.id.text1);
    return rootView;

Hope it will work.
