Would really appreciate some help with this.

I have an app which consists of a gallery, text and icons. What i want to do is similar to the android market (example can be seen below). In the android market a whole area is hyperlinked rather than just the text. Hold your finger on one of the apps and it will light up green. That whole area is a hyperlink. Like below:

Looking to get something like this: <http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/691/09droid3295x440.jpg>

Is there anyway i can do that to my app? I have a very similar app, the gallery is right at the top with icons down the left and text besides each icon. I'm a bit of a newbie so i'm using nested linearlayouts with textviews and imageviews in each one. 

Is there a way that it can be done? Thanks for any help in advance!
