Craete a method like this and pass your tab data like its view,its name and Its fragment class..

/** * Used to create a tab * * @param view * @param tag * @param name */ private void setupTab(final View view, final String tag, Class<?> name) { View tabview = createTabView(this, tag); TabSpec setContent = tabHost.newTabSpec(tag).setIndicator(tabview) .setContent(new TabContentFactory() { public View createTabContent(String tag) { return view; } }); tabHost.addTab(setContent, name, null); } /** * Used to create tabview object and setting parameters * * @param context * @param text * @return */ private View createTabView(final Context context, final String text) { View view = LayoutInflater.from(context).inflate(R.layout.tab_layout, null); Button _button = (Button) view.findViewById(R.id.tabText); _button.setText(text); return view; }

And call that method like this..

setupTab(new Button(this), "Tab1", Fragment1.class); setupTab(new Button(this), "Tab2", Fragment2.class);

i want to use final TabHost tabs= (TabHost) findViewById(R.id.tabhost); but my xml file "android:id="@android:id/tabhost" how it see then i couldnt intiated tab host are there any ideas? please
you can get tabhost object like this..tabHost = (TabHost) findViewById(android.R.id.tabhost);
can you please explain what new Button(this) does.in tabhost there we have tabwidget i have to add content to these tab widgets not to buttons.
its just one tab view like tab1 is one button and tab2 is another button..you can set text to that button whatever you want..
i have edited my answer you can set text to tabs what you want to display check it..
