comparing strings comeing from different widgets

Question

When I compare between tow values one coming from an EditText and the other from a TextView I always get that they don't match even if they are the same word

Why would that happen?

You need to show us your code. We can't help you without the code ... also, you need to add the language and framework that you use in the tags — Mathieu VIALES, Oct 23 '17 at 11:30

Are you using == ? you could try and use .equals() instead.

Hope this helps!

Thanks a lot But why is it like that I mean they are both strings so the == method should work – Night Knight Oct 23 '17 at 11:34
