changing ImageView source
<p>I have an ImageView with a source image set in the xml using the following syntax:</p>

<pre><code>   &lt;ImageView 
      android:id="@+id/articleImg"
      style="@style/articleImgSmall_2"
      android:src="@drawable/default_m" /&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>now I need to change this image programmatically. What I need to do is delete the old image and add a new one though. What I have done is this:</p>

<pre><code>myImgView.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.monkey);
</code></pre>

<p>it works but I noticed android stacks the new image on top of the old one (dont ask me how I found out it's not relevant for the discussion :). I definitely need to get rid of the old one before setting the new image.</p>

<p>how can I achieve that?</p>

<p>thanks</p>
