I have made a program in which I am using PHP to encode data as JSON. My program is working fine, and is not showing any errors or problems; I am getting what I want but I am facing very small issue.
Here, I am not able to show an item's image in ListView but whenever I click on one of the item rows to view full item detail, I get the image of selected item. It means I should be getting the image in ListView, but I'm unable to show that, so could someone please help to sort out this mistake?
