here, common_status_bar.xml common layout. have added layout game_activity.xml <include layout="@layout/common_status_bar"/>.

it displays fine, no issue. case can't make of it's elements work. have attached onclicklistener first element of it, gotolanguageselection not responding click. tested adding click event other buttons, images (one @ time) , got same result. not responding user click, or whatever.

why button , images in separate layout not respond user events?

the commonview should not created again.

if want keep reference of common_status_bar.xml, can give name id, code below:

    <relativelayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"         xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"         android:layout_width="match_parent"         android:layout_height="match_parent"         android:paddingbottom="10dp"         android:paddingleft="10dp"         android:paddingright="10dp"         android:paddingtop="10dp" >          <include             android:id="@+id/common_status_bar"             layout="@layout/common_status_bar" />      </relativelayout> 

then, change code:

       commonview = layoutinflater.inflate(r.layout.common_status_bar, null); 

to:

       commonview = findviewbyid(r.id.common_status_bar);
