Problem
I have a two layout in a ViewFlipper which contains ScrollView in each of the layout. However, my EditText does not work and I know the reason is due to the ScrollView. However, though I tried the answers in Disable ScrollView action , none worked for me. Is there a problem with my xml some where? My xml is such shown below: PageFlipper ``` <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
