Select input field according to TH and TR - xpath

I have a next table with TH:
<table cellspacing="1" border="1" id="FinancialsGrid">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Product</th>
<th>Slice</th>
<th>Units</th>
<th>Accrual Rate</th>
<th>Trend Factor</th>
<th>Base Units</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td rowspan="3">Lorem Ipsum</td>
<td>Previous</td>
<td>6,866</td>
<td>0.00 %</td>
<td>0.00 %</td>
<td>6,866</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Current</td>
<td>6,866</td>
<td>0.00 %</td>
<td>0.00 %</td>
<td>6,866</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Proposed</td>
<td>6,866</td>
<td><input type="text" style="width:60px;" value="0.00 %"></td>
<td style="width:60px;"><input type="text" style="width:60px;" value="0.00 %"></td>
<td style="width:60px;"><input type="text" style="width:90px;" value="6,866"></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
I need to select an xpath for input field according to e.g. "Trend Factor" column.
My variant which I wrote doesn't work:
//table[#id='FinancialsGrid']/tbody/tr/td/input[count(//table/thead/tr/th[.='Trend Factor'])]
Table view:

Here is the XPath
(//table[#id='FinancialsGrid']//input)[count(//tr/th)-index-of(//tr/th, //tr/th[text()='Trend Factor']) + 1]
or another one without index-of() function (for Firebug):
(//table[#id='FinancialsGrid']//input)[count(//tr/th)-count(//tr/th[text()='Trend Factor']/preceding-sibling::*)]
Will grab required input node, where:
count(//tr/th) is count of columns
index-of(//tr/th, //tr/th[text()='Trend Factor']) - current number of column
(//table[#id='FinancialsGrid']//input) - sequence of input nodes.
So we calculating position of input node and grubbing node from sequence.

Correct mrtg cfgmaker file

mrtg cfgmaker does read incorrect values over SNMP V1 and V2 and I need to correct the resulting file.
I would like to run a script after creation and use sed if possible.
Lines that needs to be corrected in my case are for LAG's and normal ports:
MaxBytes[switch01_lag_26]: 125000000 should go to MaxBytes[switch01_lag_26]: 250000000
(switch01_lag_26 can be switch01_lag_1 until switch01_lag_26)
MaxBytes[switch01_g1]: 12500000 should go to MaxBytes[switch01_g1]: 125000000
(switch01_g1 can be switch01_g1 until switch01_g16)
What sed patterns I have to use to analyze if its a lag or port in the square brackets and then replace the number after the : ?
The html part should show the correct speed if possible too, this is original for port g1:
<h1>Traffic Analysis for g1-- switch01</h1>
<div id="sysdetails">
<table>
<tr>
<td>System:</td>
<td>switch01</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Maintainer:</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Description:</td>
<td>1-Gigabit---Level </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>ifType:</td>
<td>ethernetCsmacd (6)</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>ifName:</td>
<td>g1</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Max Speed:</td>
<td>12.5 MBytes/s</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Ip:</td>
<td>No Ip (No DNS name)</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
and should read at the end (Line below "Max Speed" is changed):
<h1>Traffic Analysis for g1-- switch01</h1>
<div id="sysdetails">
<table>
<tr>
<td>System:</td>
<td>switch01</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Maintainer:</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Description:</td>
<td>1-Gigabit---Level </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>ifType:</td>
<td>ethernetCsmacd (6)</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>ifName:</td>
<td>g1</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Max Speed:</td>
<td>125.0 MBytes/s</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Ip:</td>
<td>No Ip (No DNS name)</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
This is original for LAG 1:
<h1>Traffic Analysis for lag 1 -- switch01</h1>
<div id="sysdetails">
<table>
<tr>
<td>System:</td>
<td>switch01</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Maintainer:</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Description:</td>
<td>lag-1 </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>ifType:</td>
<td>IEEE 802.3ad Link Aggregate (161)</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>ifName:</td>
<td>lag 1</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Max Speed:</td>
<td>125.0 MBytes/s</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Ip:</td>
<td>No Ip (No DNS name)</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
which should read at the end (Line below "Max Speed" is changed):
<h1>Traffic Analysis for lag 1 -- switch01</h1>
<div id="sysdetails">
<table>
<tr>
<td>System:</td>
<td>switch01</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Maintainer:</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Description:</td>
<td>lag-1 </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>ifType:</td>
<td>IEEE 802.3ad Link Aggregate (161)</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>ifName:</td>
<td>lag 1</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Max Speed:</td>
<td>250.0 MBytes/s</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Ip:</td>
<td>No Ip (No DNS name)</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
I can change all speeds in HTML using sed -i 's/\([0-9.]\+\) MBytes/125.0 MBytes/' /switch01.cfg but this changes for LAG's too. How to detect if the HTML part belongs to a LAG?

Why Xpath 3.0 works, but Xquery 3.0 doesn't work with the same expression

I launched Xpath in Oxygen. In Xpath 3.0 found what i need but in Xquery 3.0 doesn't find.
This is my Xpath expression
//table[tbody/tr/th/p[contains(text(), 'All Water System Contacts')]]/tbody/tr[3]/td[1]
This is my xml code

I tried different functions.
I don't know why it doesn't work and what difference
Please help me.
I suspect your real, complete input has an XHTML default namespace declaration xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" and in oXygen for XPath you have the setting enabled to "use the default namespace of the root element" so your path works with XPath out of the box while for XQuery you need to make sure you explicitly set
declare default element namespace 'http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml';
in the prolog of your XQuery file or code sample.

nokogiri parsing first td in tr ignoring specific class

I have the following html
<table>
<tr>
<th>value</th>
<th>description</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>OverallHealthScore</td>
<td>
Overall HealthScore.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="deprecated">DESTAGED_TRACKS_PER_SEC</td>
<td>
The tracks per second saved into disks.
</td>
</tr>
</table>
There are many many tr's but this is an excerpt of the two scenario's
I need to only print out OverallHealthScore
table.css('tr').map do |row|
puts row.css('td:not(.deprecated)').map(&:text)[0]
end
Gets me just about there but prints out the "description" td on the deprecated items. I can't seem to figure out what I need to do in order to get the results I am needing.
Assuming you want to get the first td's value which are not deprecated:
<table>
<tr>
<th>value</th>
<th>description</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>OverallHealthScore</td>
<td>
Overall HealthScore.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="deprecated">DESTAGED_TRACKS_PER_SEC</td>
<td>
The tracks per second saved into disks.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>AvaiableAnother</td>
<td>
Another Available HealthScore.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="deprecated">OTHER_DEPRE</td>
<td>
The tracks per second saved into disks.
</td>
</tr>
</table>
Then
puts table.css('td:first-child:not(.deprecated)').map(&:text)
# OverallHealthScore
# AvaiableAnother

Optimal XPath Query for processing the sample HTML fragment

I have a feed that outputs HTML. The following segment is part of the output
<div class="leftnav">
<table border="0" cols="2">
<tr>
<td colspan="2" class="topline"><span style="font-size: 1px"> </span></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2"><span class="bold">Article Cat1 </span></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="date" colspan="2">
ArticleTitle1</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="20"></td>
<td class="date">
ArticleLink1
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2" class="topline"><span style="font-size: 1px"> </span></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2"><span class="bold">Article Cat2 </span></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="date" colspan="2">
ArticleTitle2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="20"></td>
<td class="date">
ArticleLink2
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
I want to process above segment using XPATH so that output looks like this
Article Cat1
ArticleTitle1
ArticleLink1 Article Cat2
ArticleTitle2
ArticleLink2
What is the optimal XPATH that will produce the desired output? I tried //div[#class="leftnav"]/table/tr but this gives all the TR elements. I want to skip the first TR element so that I can get the output in the format I described above.
//div[#class="leftnav"]/table/tr[position() > 1]
Try the above
Stupid simple way:
substring-after(normalize-space(string(//*:div)), normalize-space(string(//*:div/*:table/*[1])))
Result: "Article Cat1 ArticleTitle1 ArticleLink1 nbsp Article Cat2 ArticleTitle2 ArticleLink2"
I don't know why, but (position() > 1) doesn't work in my environment, so I've used strings instead.

Trying to find XPath for multiple TDs

I want to extract the Address for specific Numbers (the first TD) of this table. The only unique identifier for the table is the H3.
Here is the code for the table:
<table width="95%" cellpadding=5 cellspacing=0 border=1>
<tr><td colspan="4"><h3>The list</td></tr>
<tr>
<td>Number</td><td>First Name</td>
<td>Last Name</td><td>Address</td>
</tr>
I have tried:
//table[#h3=’See this now’]/’tr/td[87] and td[107] and td[116]
I am new to xpath, and programming in general. It's pretty fun, but would love to be able to figure this one out!! Appreciate any help :D
First, your HTML is wrong.
You did not close your Table element.
You did not close your H3 element.
You must enclose your attributes in quotes.
<table width="95%" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" border="1">
<tr>
<td colspan="4">
<h3>The list</h3>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Number</td>
<td>First Name</td>
<td>Last Name</td>
<td>Address</td>
</tr>
</table>
Once you have fixed the formatting of your XHTML. You can traverse the document tree.
XPATH
Any table, with any td that has a h3.
//table//td/h3
Will return
<h3>The list</h3>
For the number
//table//tr[2]/td[1] <-- any table, the second tr element in this table, the first td in that second tr
Will return
<td>Number</td>
So if we add multiple tables to a document and you want to find multiple results for each element in any table, this is quite simple. Say we have a XHTML document with many tables inside a parent element, for example 'root' element.
<root>
<table width="95%" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" border="1">
<tr>
<td colspan="4">
<h3>The list</h3>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>123</td>
<td>First Name</td>
<td>Last Name</td>
<td>Address</td>
</tr>
</table>
<table width="95%" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" border="1">
<tr>
<td colspan="4">
<h3>The list</h3>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>456</td>
<td>First Name</td>
<td>Last Name</td>
<td>Address</td>
</tr>
</table>
<table width="95%" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" border="1">
<tr>
<td colspan="4">
<h3>The list</h3>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>789</td>
<td>First Name</td>
<td>Last Name</td>
<td>Address</td>
</tr>
</table>
</root>
We can extract the number of the first table data in each second row in every table using the following XPATH expression:
//table/tr[2]/td[1]
This will give us the result of
<td>123</td>
-----------------------
<td>456</td>
-----------------------
<td>789</td>
Now, say we have several tables, but only one table is very important to us, the table must have a H3 element, no other element is important to us, and if this table has a H3 element, we want to extract the second rows first td.
<root>
<table width="95%" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" border="1">
<tr>
<td colspan="4">
<h4>Ignore me!</h4>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>1164961564896</td>
<td>First Name</td>
<td>Last Name</td>
<td>Address</td>
</tr>
</table>
<table width="95%" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" border="1">
<tr>
<td colspan="4">
<h1>I'm not interesting</h1>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>456456466465</td>
<td>First Name</td>
<td>Last Name</td>
<td>Address</td>
</tr>
</table>
<table width="95%" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" border="1">
<tr>
<td colspan="4">
<h3>IM THE IMPORTANT TABLE!</h3>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>123456789</td>
<td>First Name</td>
<td>Last Name</td>
<td>Address</td>
</tr>
</table>
</root>
We can acomplish this by traversing back up the tree if we are successful in finding the H3 element, then go to the next tr.
//table//h3/../../../tr/td[1]
Will return
<td colspan="4">
<h3>IM THE IMPORTANT TABLE!</h3>
</td>
-----------------------
<td>123456789</td>
