[android-developers] I am trying to set the Image for an ImageView any help would be great

[Gabriel Higareda]

Sorry to be posting but I can't see my posts on the group page: This is the 
code that is giving me trouble: 

        try{
        URL url = new 
URL("http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Polar_Bear_-_Alaska.jpg";);
        HttpURLConnection connection  = (HttpURLConnection) 
url.openConnection();

        InputStream is = connection.getInputStream();
        Bitmap img = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(is);  
        
        animalPhoto.setImageBitmap(img );
        }catch(Exception e){
            Toast.makeText(this,"IO Exception", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show(); 
        }

But when i run my app, no picture is shown and my catch message shows... 
Not sure what is going on.
