Get data from SQLite database to intent through "onItemClick" on item in ListView Android

I really need your help.

I have a database with latitude and longitude data, here the example:

id_____name_____lat_________long

1_____hotel one___6.1234______-106.12345

2____hotel two____6.54321_____-107.23456

3___hotel three___7.12345_____-106.98765

The data display in ListView on Android. And i use onItemClick, so if i click one of the item in ListView it will go to

Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&saddr=&daddr="+lat_var+","+long_var))

But the problem is if i click one of the item in ListView the data in lat_var and long_var on intent above won't give me the lat and long data from my database...

Here my code, can you edit it, so if i click one of the item in ListView it will give me the lat and long data from my database. For example if i click hotel two the lat_var will change to 6.54321 and the long_var will change to -107.23456 on that intent.

public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1, int arg2,
                long arg3) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            SQLiteDatabase dbs = dbHotelHelper.getReadableDatabase();

            String get_lat = "SELECT lat FROM hoteltbl";
            Cursor result_lat = dbs.rawQuery(get_lat, null);
            double lat_var = result_lat.getColumnIndex("lat");
            String get_long = "SELECT lat FROM hoteltbl";
            Cursor result_long = dbs.rawQuery(get_long, null);
            double long_var = result_long.getColumnIndex("long");

            Intent intent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&saddr=&daddr="+lat_var+","+long_var));
            startActivity(intent);

        }

I don't know if the problem is my syntax or what. Please fix my code. I really thanks for anyone who answer this...

First, only one query is necessary. No need to query your table twice. Second, you need to adapt your query with parameters from your selection:

@Override
protected void onListItemClick(ListView listView, View view, int position, long id) {id) {    
    String selectedItem = (String) getListAdapter().getItem(position);
    String query = "SELECT lat, long FROM hoteltbl WHERE name = '" + selectedItem + "'";
    SQLiteDatabase dbs = dbHotelHelper.getReadableDatabase();
    Cursor result = dbs.rawQuery(query, null);
    result.moveToFirst();

    double lat = result.getDouble(result.getColumnIndex("lat"));
    double long = result.getDouble(result.getColumnIndex("long"));

    ....

This code was written in the StackOverflow editor, it might not work as such, but will give you an idea.

(Also, don't add suffixes "_var", or "_long" to your variables, it's not necessary in a strongly-typed language like Java)
