intent.setClass(this, com.a.someclass.class);
}
startActivityForResult(intent, position);

Original Message:
i have been searching everywhere for a good tutorial on this, i have posted my code online so people can look at it but have not found the help i needed.
I am new to this and what i am basically trying to do is just have a list of items which are all linked to one class that has a dynamic TextView that will be used for the title and a WebView for content, And so basically when a item is clicked on the list it will open up the new activity/intent and it will also pass arguments to change the TextView and WebView accordingly.
I know how to open a new activity by making a new class for each item on the list but i am pretty sure there is an easier way where i can reuse one class and just keep changing the TextView and WebView. The reason i say this is because i have 15 items on my list, but that will expand overtime so i dont want to be making 50-60 different classes to open up each new item.
If some could point me to the right tutorial or give me some insight on here i will really really appreciate it!
Thank you
