I'm trying to use a ListView with Buttons beneath the listview, and am
running into problems where the listview and buttons just don't
realize each other are there (they overlap)

Currently the xml file is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout
  xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android";
  android:layout_width="fill_parent"
  android:layout_height="wrap_content">

        <Button
                android:id="@+id/addTask"
                android:layout_width="fill_parent"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:text="Add Task" />

    <ListView
        android:id="@id/android:list"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent"
        android:drawSelectorOnTop="false"/>

</RelativeLayout>

and the java code is:

public class TaskManager extends ListActivity {
        protected static final int SUB_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE = 1337;
        private String array_spinner[];
        final int SUCCESS_RETURN_CODE = 1;
        List<String> tasks;
        int currentposition;

        public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
                super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
                setContentView(R.layout.taskmanager);

                ArrayList <String> arrayList = new ArrayList<String>();
                arrayList.add("Task1");
                arrayList.add("Task2");
                arrayList.add("Task3");

                tasks = arrayList;
                Button addButton = (Button)findViewById(R.id.addTask);

                addButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

...
...

I'm also not sure if using a ListView in this case is the correct
solution.  What I'm trying to do is have a list of options that the
user can select, and when they select it, it remains highlighted, then
I can use that value when I press another button, for example:

item 1
item 2
item 3

[Move item up]
[Move item down]

where [ ]'s are buttons

Any suggestions with what I should actually be using?  I tried looking
up "android selection list" but the closest thing was selection
dialog, which isn't what I'm looking for.

Thanks,
Moiraine
