Is it better to not use Footers within ListView?
<p>What is the advantage of adding/removing and positioning footers within a listview?  would it not be better to display in an area below the ListView?  There are errors that can occur adding/removing footers dynamically.  Moreover when adding it appear (correct me if I am wrong), that the adapter needs to be reset each time the footer is added.</p>

<p>Here is the method I end up using for adding a footer view to a listview, which shows the add/remove stuff.</p>

<pre><code>  private void addFooterView(ListView listView, View footerView)
{
    if ((listView != null) &amp;&amp; (footerView != null))
    {
        listView.removeFooterView(footerView);
        listView.addFooterView(footerView);
        if (listView.getAdapter() != null)
        {

           listView.setAdapter(mInTheatersMostPopularAdapter);
        }
    }

}
</code></pre>
