What if I have the use case where I want to have a search box inside a tab. The user enters some text, runs the search and the results should come back in the same tab (ListActivity). Then, when an item from the list is selected, they should see a detailed view of the item. This entire workflow should say inside the same tab. Basically, I have three screens that I would like to stay under one tab.
Likewise, if the user presses "back" they should get to the previous screen -- if they were on a search result, back button takes them back to the search screen, etc.. Is this possible? Wouldn't swapping out views for each of these be a pain. I've been seeing a lot of questions around this type of functionality, but no answers. Thanks for any help!
