Hi all,

I tried to create a edittextbox, and button next to it, in the status
bar. !!
I created it  and tried to launch the browser activity, when somebody
enters a URL in the textbox & click that button.

I get runtime exception as below.Can anyone please help what is the
issue with this exception ?
I know that Status bar is not a seperate activity. It is part of
'PhoneWindow'. But then i couldnt figure out what is the issue ?
Framework experts coud you pls help here...!!
