Passing a String value across Activities?
<p>I am currently attempting to pass a string across activities. The string is used to set an image in the second activity. So the user is clicking a button in the first activity and then the appropriate image is loaded in the second activity based upon what was selected. There are three buttons in the first activity all which should send a String value to the next activity.</p>

<p>This is what I have in my first activity:</p>

<pre><code>Button archerButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.Button_Archer);
archerButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
    public void onClick(View v) {
        String selection = "archer";
        Bundle basket = new Bundle();
        basket.putString("key", selection);
        Intent i = new Intent(SelectCharacterActivity.this, LevelOneActivity.class);
        i.putExtras(basket);
        startActivity(i);
        finish();
        }
    });
}
</code></pre>

<p>The receiving activity has the following code:</p>

<pre><code>public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE);
    setContentView(R.layout.level_one);

    ImageView img = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.Character_Chosen);

    Bundle extras = getIntent().getExtras();
    String Toon = extras.getString("key");

    if(Toon=="archer"){
        img.setImageResource(R.drawable.archer);
    }

    if(Toon=="mage"){
        img.setImageResource(R.drawable.mage);
    }
    if(Toon=="warrior"){
        img.setImageResource(R.drawable.warrior);
    }
}     
</code></pre>

<p>I know that the receive if statements section works because if I manually set the value Toon the image will load. So somewhere the information is not being sent or read properly. I followed a tutorial online and but am stumped on this.</p>
