Hi,
R.string does not contain strings but int values that identify your
strings. You can use the Context and its Resource (see getResources())
to load a String given its id.
Also, you cannot retrieve the Activity by calling getParent() on a
view. An Activity is *never* the parent of a View. Only two classes
can be a View's parent in the UI framework: a ViewGroup (for instance
a LinearLayout) and ViewRoot. Note that ViewRoot is not accessible
from your application.
