Question

Hello and thanks for help I have asked here how to Polpulate listview from firebase and thankfully Krishna Kishan solved my problem but now what I like to do is when I click on

I assume you are using push() to add those messages to the database. Since push() generates a time based id, the order of the elements in the list is chronological, meaning what was added later comes after what was added earlier. So, when you are push()-ing, get the key and maintain a list of the ids. Then, in your onClick, use the position parameter to get the id for the clicked item and delete it in the database. Here's an example:

List ids; //update this list with ids as you push
..
//then in your onItemClick
@Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView parent, View view, int position, long id)
{
  rootReference.child("messages").child(ids.get(position)).removeValue();
  //update any offline lists
}

Please note that this assumes you're also displaying the messages in your ListView in the same order as in your database.
