NullPointerException when launching method in Fragment Class?

07-30 21:02:39.260: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(7961): java.lang.NullPointerException
07-30 21:02:39.260: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(7961):     at com.fttech.gameIT.shoppingClass$1.onClick(shoppingClass.java:45)
 07-30 21:02:39.260: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(7961):     at android.view.View.performClick(View.java:3110)
 07-30 21:02:39.260: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(7961):     at android.view.View$PerformClick.run(View.java:11928)
 07-30 21:02:39.260: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(7961):     at android.os.Handler.handleCallback(Handler.java:587)

That is the code i get at this line when launching another class extends Fragment{

EDIT: Added initializaion

        shopping_details_fragment shopping;

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.shopping);

    findIT = (Button)findViewById(R.id.findIT);
    shop = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.item);
    type = (RadioGroup)findViewById(R.id.console);
    site = (RadioGroup)findViewById(R.id.shopping_group);
    shopping = new shopping_details_fragment();

    final Intent d = new Intent(this, shopping_details_fragment.class);
    findIT.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            getUserPreference();
            shopping.loadUrl(url);// line 45
            startActivity(d);


        }

Here is the activitiy i am trying to launch

public class shopping_details_fragment extends Fragment{

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

    //Return the view for our WebView
    return(inflater.inflate(R.id.browserFrag,container, false));

}

public void loadUrl(String url){
    ((WebView)getView().findViewById(R.id.browser)).loadUrl(url);
}

}

EDIT 2:It now gives me a error at 

((WebView)getView().findViewById(R.id.browser)).loadUrl(url);

Here is the error 

 07-30 22:34:42.820: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(9785): java.lang.NullPointerException
 07-30 22:34:42.820: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(9785):     at com.fttech.gameIT.shopping_details_fragment.loadUrl(shopping_details_fragment.java:21)

EDIT 3: detials_fragment.xml This xml is holding the WebView with id browser...

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<WebView
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
 android:layout_width="match_parent"
 android:id="@+id/browser"
 android:layout_height="match_parent">
</WebView>

HERE IS shopping XML holding the fragment browserFrag

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
 android:layout_height="fill_parent"

>
<LinearLayout

android:name="com.fttech"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="525dp" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:weightSum="1">

  <LinearLayout android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:id="@+id/linearLayout1" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:orientation="vertical">
    <Button android:text="Find IT!" android:id="@+id/findIT" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content"></Button>
   </LinearLayout>
   <EditText android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:id="@+id/item"></EditText>
   <TextView android:text="Pick Your Shopping Site" android:id="@+id/text" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:textSize="21dip"> </TextView>

  </LinearLayout>

<fragment android:layout_height="match_parent" android:id="@+id/browserFrag" android:name="com.fttech.gameIT.shopping_details_fragment" android:layout_width="match_parent">  </fragment>

 </LinearLayout>

I'm going to make a wild assumption that line 45 of shoppingClass.java is:

shopping.loadUrl(url);

I'm also going to guess that shopping is not being properly initialized.

EDIT: What is the behavior if you replace the above line with:

if (shopping == null) {
    Toast.makeText(this, "shopping==null!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
} else {
    shopping.loadUrl(url);
}

If you get the toast message, then perhaps you are assigning null to shopping somewhere else in your code. Your debugger can help if you put a write watch on shopping.
