contextmenu

Hi.

I have an activity that on it's onCreate method it does:

registerForContextMenu(theView);

and in onCreateContextMenu:

super.onCreateContextMenu(menu, v, menuInfo);
menu.add(blablabla);

This works great, but the problem is that the context menu disappears when the screen rotates. How to fix this?

Thanks for reading!
