I have used a MYSQL Database and connected it to my Android App using PHP. I added a sample row in the table and the PHP Script is returning JSON. I have tried my best in parsing the JSON and displaying it in a list. But it does not seem to be working. Able to run the App - But does not display content - Only shows the Dialog. It seems to work in Case of an Activity - What changes should be made to make it work for a Fragment. Here is my LogCat when I open up the fragment - http://prntscr.com/3f6k0a .

EDIT :
Got my code to work. The Problem was with the JSON Structure. I did not Navigate properly and this gave me a "No Value for message" Error. For others who might be having same issues - Remember that when you have { in your JSON , you use JSONArray and when you have [ you use JSONObject. You need to navigate module wise through your JSON.
