title: Android 2.3.3 Tabbed Activity One View Per Tab | Receiving Error "Could not create tab content because could not find view with id"
body: <p>Environment: <strong>Android 2.3.3 with Google API</strong></p>
  
  <p>I know this is kind of long, but I posted all information in case you needed to refer to it. Thanks in advance!</p>
  
  <p>I followed the Android example here: <a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/tutorials/views/hello-tabwidget.html" rel="nofollow">http://developer.android.com/guide/tutorials/views/hello-tabwidget.html</a>, but I am getting the error "Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: Could not create tab content because could not find view with id".</p>
  
  <p>Here is the app flow:
  The app begins at the home screen, and an Intent is created in onStart() and starts the CartActivity. Before the CartActivity is started, the app crashes with the RuntimeException "Could not create tab content because could not find view with id 2131034112"</p>
