Android onItemClick -> Toast bookmark id

Question

Been trying to find out what is the bookmark id the user clicked on... Tried everything, many force closes... and now an empty toast (no error marks in eclipse):

public class Dmarks extends ListActivity {

    protected Context context;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);

        final TextView selection;
        String[] projection = new String[] {
                                    Browser.BookmarkColumns._ID,
                                    Browser.BookmarkColumns.FAVICON, 
                                    Browser.BookmarkColumns.TITLE, 
                                    Browser.BookmarkColumns.URL
                                    };
        String[] displayFields = new String[] {
                                    Browser.BookmarkColumns.TITLE, 
                                    Browser.BookmarkColumns.FAVICON,
                                    Browser.BookmarkColumns.URL
                                    };
        final int[] displayViews = new int[] {
                                    android.R.id.text1, 
                                    android.R.id.text2
                                    };

        Cursor cur = managedQuery(android.provider.Browser.BOOKMARKS_URI, projection, android.provider.Browser.BookmarkColumns.BOOKMARK, null, null);

        setListAdapter(new ImageCursorAdapter(this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_2, cur, displayFields, displayViews));
        selection = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.btitle);

        ListView lv = getListView();
        lv.setTextFilterEnabled(true);

        lv.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,int position, long id) {
                Context context = getApplicationContext();
                TextView text = selection;
                int duration = Toast.LENGTH_SHORT;

                Toast.makeText(context, (CharSequence) text, duration).show();
          }
        });

   }

ImageCursorAdapter is another class showing bookmarks favicon and title (it works).

Really would appreciate help with what am I doing wrong here.

Thanks!

You are casting a TextView into a CharSequence? That doesn't make any sense. How about text.getText().

You should also learn to use logcat or eclipse ddms to get stack traces or additional information when your app force closes. From eclipse, open the logcat window. Or, run adb logcat on the command line.
