I'm trying to sort a column such as :
<td> <span class="badge badge-light">300 €</span> jean-yves#gmail.com </td>
Where the content of the badge (300 €) is the amount I want to be used for the sort.
Without the badge, the sort is working without problem, but it doesn't seem to work with the badge.
SOLUTION 1
See columns.type option which you can set to 'html' to have HTML tags removed for ordering and searching.
SOLUTION 2
Alternatively you can tell DataTables value you want to use for sorting using data- attributes, see HTML5 data-* attributes - cell data.
For example:
<td data-order="300"> <span class="badge badge-light">300 €</span> jean-yves#gmail.com </td>

This is my HTML code so far:
<tr valign="top">
<td nowrap="x">Citation(s)</td>
<td>
<span class="pubmed_id" id="26472973">
26472973
</span>
</td>
</tr>
I would like to extract the number 26472973, which is a value that changes for each entry in the database.
It is unclear if you want to get either the value from the attribute #id or the following a element.
So, for the attribute value, try this XPath:
//tr[#valign='top']/td/span[#class='pubmed_id']/#id
Or, for the element's a value use this XPath:
//tr[#valign='top']/td/span[#class='pubmed_id']/a/text()
In both case the result is 26472973.
In case you just want the 'citations', here another try:
//tr/td[text()='Citation(s)']/following-sibling::td/span/#id
I have such DOM structure:
<td>
<div class="name">Max</div>
</td>
<td>Sales Officer</td>
<td>mail#mail.com</td>
<td class="links">
<a class="edit" href="/edit"><i class="second"></i>Edit Profile</a>
</td>
The main goal is to click on Edit button for particular user. And I have different users (they are in another rows of table).
I need to get xpath which contains the combination of name Max and text Edit Profile.
The main problem for me that both elements are in sibling td tags.
I've never written anything similar before.
//a[text()='Max'] //i[text()='Edit Profile']
What should I add between this to xpathes?
This one should do the trick:
//td[a="Max"]/following-sibling::td/a[.="Edit Profile"]
My query is I need to click on the first edit link on the table. The table has 7 columns and rows will be incremented dynamically.
HTML Code for first row:
<tr role="row" class="odd">
<td>
<form method="GET" target="_blank" action>...</form>
<td> ALLOCATION CHANGE</td>
<td class="right"></td>
<td> SATTER, KRAIG</td>
<td> CAFEMANAGER1</td>
<td class="sorting_1">03/08/2016 17:00</td>
<td class="edit_icon" id="edit_1088" onclick="on EditClick(1088)">
<span class="view_icon" style="margin-left: 40%;"></span>
</td>
</tr>
Note: the ID of the edit button keep on changing as the row increments.
Mycode in cucumber -ruby -capybara
And /^I click on the Expresso image$/ do
find(:xpath, '//*[#id="l1row"]/span').click
find('tr:odd > td:edit_icon [id="edit_"] match: first').click
sleep 10
end
Error Message: invalid selector: An invalid or illegal selector was specified
Update based on the posted HTML -
Note: Your first <td> isn't closed, I'm assuming thats just an error when you were adding the HTML to the question.
So from the HTML posted you don't actually have an edit link you just have a td you need to click on - the one in the first row with an id beginning with "edit_" so
find('tr:first-child > td[id^="edit_"]').click
The attempt you posted in your question won't work because there is no such CSS selector as odd or edit_icon and find needs valid CSS selectors (or XPath if you specify XPath or set it as your default)
Previous Answer Based on the wording of the question:
If this is a table then you can do what you want with CSS and not worry about XPath.
find('tr:first-child > td:last-child [id^="edit_"]')
will find the element whose id starts with "edit_" in the last td in the first row. If your rows and columns are not actually a table you'll need to provide some example HTML of what you're talking about.
I have an XML like that:
<tr class="TREven">
<td class="Col0">
<span>
<b>Diary Compliance:</b>
Number of Daily Reports completed
<br/>
<i>
* Must be
<u>24</u>
or more
</i>
</span>
</td>
<td class="Col1">
<span class="Red">4 - Not eligible</span>
</td>
</tr>
I don't know how to select "4 - Not eligible" base on my input text (Diary Compliance: Number of Daily Reports completed * Must be 24 or more) which is contained by many child nodes of span before.
Could you help me?
Thanks,
This is alse my trouble
I often use this xpath to get element on cell 2 base on element on cell 1 in a row table like him:
//span[contains(text(),'Diary Compliance: Number of Daily Reports completed * Must be 24 or more')]/../..//span[contains(text(),'4 - Not eligible')]
It's ok until I get trouble when element on cell 1 has lot of format node, I can't pass my exactly text to element on cell 1. In my case, I must use exactly text, not contains text.
I already know the Text of an element in the table:
string title1 = Driver.FindElement(
By.XPath(
".//[#id='ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_BreakdownGridView_ctl02_TitleLabel']"
)).Text;
How do I verify if there's a second element in the table that has the same text as title1?
Here is my Table structure:
<tr class="alt" style="background-color:White;height:110px;">
<td>
<span id="ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_BreakdownGridView_ctl03_WindowStartLabel" tabindex="1">
01/13/2013
</span>
</td>
<td>
<span id="ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_BreakdownGridView_ctl03_ShowLabel" tabindex="1">
Leader of the Pack
</span>
</td>
<td>
<span id="ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_BreakdownGridView_ctl03_TitleLabel">
Love at First Bite
</span>
</td>
<td>
<span id="ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_BreakdownGridView_ctl03_PremiereLabel">
01/12/2013 22:00
</span>
</td>
...
</tr>
After getting title1 try implement logic something like below to find how many elements are there with the same text
int count=driver.findElements(By.xpath("//table[#id='urTable']//*[text()='"+title1+"']")).size();
Based on the count it is easy to find how many elements are there with same text.
In your table structure, doing an xpath query as below would select all the span tags.
//tr/td/span
Now, xpath can be used to select the span tags with specific text as follows:
//tr/td/span[text() = "Text you're matching against"]
/* in your case*/
//tr/td/span[text() = title1]
This is to get spans consist that text....(partial match)
int count= driver.FindElements(
By.XPath(
".//span[contains(text(),'"+titleOneText+"')]"
)).size();
This is to get spans text is same....(full match)
int count= driver.FindElements(
By.XPath(
".//span[text()='"+titleOneText+"']"
)).size();
Based on your question if same xpath value having 2 elements. Just see the static value of particular element and take as xpath. it will work definitely. for example
save & cancel button having same xpath value
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//*[#id='id_sav']")-save
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//*[#id='id_sav']")-cancel
here we can use static element value
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//a[text()='save']")-save
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//a[text()='cancel']")-cancel
