Fragment Intermediate (II):Dynmically adding row in a fragment, Android

Question

I am trying to dynamically add rows to a table in the fragment. However, I am facing some run-time error and seriously in need of some advice.

Logcat:

1)E/AndroidRuntime(1038): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.example.lol/com.example.lol.MainActivity}: android.view.InflateException: Binary XML file line #96: Error inflating class fragment

import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.TableLayout;
import android.widget.TableRow;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class FragmentTwo extends Fragment {

    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater,ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) 
    {
        View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_two, container, false);

        TableLayout tl=(TableLayout) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.mainLayout);


        TableRow tr = new TableRow(getActivity().getApplicationContext());
//        tr.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams( LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));


        TextView textview1 = new TextView(getActivity().getApplicationContext());
        textview1.setText("unhappy");
        tr.addView(textview1);

        TextView textview2 = new TextView(getActivity().getApplicationContext());
        textview2.setText("happy");
        tr.addView(textview2);


        tl.addView(tr, new TableLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));

        return view;
    }

MainActivity.java

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

    @Override

        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

    public void selectFrag(View view) {
        Fragment fr;    
        if(view == findViewById(R.id.button2)) {
            fr = new FragmentTwo();

        }else {
            fr = new FragmentOne();
        }
        FragmentManager fm = getFragmentManager();
        FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fm.beginTransaction();
        fragmentTransaction.replace(R.id.fragment_place, fr);
        fragmentTransaction.commit();

   }

}

Change this

TableLayout tl=(TableLayout) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.mainLayout);

to

TableLayout tl=(TableLayout) view.findViewById(R.id.mainLayout);

This is one mistake which avoids NullPointerException.

And use getActivity() to initialize views. To know why read

When to call activity context OR application context?
