          Home .setText("Home");

         //we use linear layout to add button.
        LinearLayout layout = (LinearLayout ) View.inflate(this, R.layout.sample, null);
        //add the button to the view
       layout  .addView(Home );
       //set the layout using the inflated view
        setContentView(layout);

            public void onClick(View v)
            {

                 Intent intent = new Intent(getApplication(),Activity2.class);
                 startActivity(intent);

                 //Uri uri = Uri.parse("http://www.mpsc.gov.in/advertisements.jsp?head=1&status=1");
                // Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri);
