You can *cancel* it, if that's what you mean. But it doesn't do that automatically either. It does what you tell it to do. In this case, if your dialog goes away, you need to tell the task to stop doing what it's doing. how can i tell if the AlertDialog is shown or no longer active. > Look at it's documentation. There are methods for being told when it is dismissed, canceled, or is currently showing. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TreKing <http://sites.google.com/site/rezmobileapps/treking> - Chicago transit tracking app for Android-powered devices -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
