Multiple Layouts inside a Parent Layout

To show two different layout inside a parent layout we will be working with linear layout. You just need to specify the weight of child layouts.

Here goes the code:

activity_main.xml

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/rightLayout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >

<LinearLayout
    android:id="@+id/lay1"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="0dp"
    android:layout_weight="1"
    android:background="#EEFFAA"
    android:orientation="vertical" >

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/button1"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
       
        android:text="Button" />
  
</LinearLayout>

<LinearLayout
    android:id="@+id/lay2"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="0dip"
    android:layout_weight="1"
    android:background="#FF9999"
    android:orientation="vertical" >

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/button2"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="center"
        android:text="Button" />
   
</LinearLayout>


</LinearLayout>

For practising basic Fragment implementation refer to Android Simple Fragment Example      We have used only three activities for this: MainActivity(which represents the Login Screen) Fragments for Members area Fragment for New Users

Simple Login/Register Example using SQLite database

MainActivity.java(login Screen) package com.AndroidDevelopmentGuru.database_new; import java.util.List; import android.app.Activity; import android.content.Intent; import android.database.Cursor; import android.os.Bundle; import android.view.MenuItem; import android.view.View; import android.view.View.OnClickListener; import android.widget.Button; import android.widget.EditText; import android.widget.Toast; public class MainActivity extends Activity {                                 EditText user, pass;                 Button login, not_reg;                 DatabaseHandler db;                 Cursor cursor;                                 @Override                 protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {                                 super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);                                 setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
