I've this code...
<td class="alt1" id="td_threadtitle_335784">
<td class="alt1" id="td_threadtitle_342222">
<td class="alt1" id="td_threadtitle_554213">
<td class="alt1" id="td_threadtitle_31226">
<td class="alt1" id="td_threadtitle_9442">
The question is...
How can i use the selectnodes or other function to select the ID's...
I try -
foreach (HtmlNode n in doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//a[#id='td_threadtitle_']"))
But the numbers in the end are $%## Everthing...
[]'s
[SOLVED] I want to select only td_threadtitle_
Then i use This...
`("//a[starts-with(#id,'thread_title_')]")`
Works Great!
This code i see here too..
Thanks for the

Consider the below table structure contains many rows with multiple column values. I need to identify the parent of specific row, which has to be identified using the cell .
<table class = 'grid'>
<thead id = 'header'>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>
<span class="group">
<span class="group__link"><a class="disabledlink"">copy</a>
</span>
</span>
</td>
<td class="COLUMNNAME">ACE</td>
<td class="COLUMNLONGNAME">Adverse Childhood Experiences</td>
<li>Family Medicine</li>
<li>General Practice</li>
</td>
<td class="COLUMNSEXFILTER">Both</td>
<td class="COLUMNAGEFILTERMIN">Any</td>
<td class="COLUMNTYPE">Score Only</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="nowrap" showactionitem="2">
<span class="group">
<span class="group__link"><a onclick="Check()" href="#">copy</a>
</span>
</span>
</td>
<td class="COLUMNNAME">AM-PAC</td>
<td class="COLUMNLONGNAME">AM-PAC Generic Outpatient Basic Mobility Short Form</td>
<td class="COLUMNNOTE"></td>
<td class="COLUMNRESTRICTEDYN">No</td>
<td class="COLUMNSPECIALTYID"></td>
<td class="COLUMNSEXFILTER">Both</td>
<td class="COLUMNAGEFILTERMIN">Any</td>
<td class="COLUMNTYPE">Score Only</td>
</tr>
<tr></tr>
<tr></tr>
</tbody></thead>
</table>
Likewise this table contains around 100 rows. I did the same using iteration and it is working fine.
Is it possible to find the parent of specific row without iteration?
You can use the parent method to find the parent of an element. Assuming that you have located a table cell, let's call it cell, you can get its row using parent and then the parent of the row with another call to parent:
cell.parent
#=> a <tr> element
cell.parent.parent
#=> the parent of the specific row - a <tbody> element in this case
Chaining multiple parent calls can become tedious and difficult to maintain. For example, you would have to call parent 4 times to get the table cell of the "copy" link. If you are after an ancestor (ie not immediate parent), you are better off using XPath:
cell.table(xpath: './ancestor::table')
#=> the <table> element containing the cell
browser.link(text: 'copy').tr(xpath: './ancestor::tr')
#=> the <tr> element containing a copy link
Hopefully Issue 451 will be implemented soon, which will remove the need for XPath. You would be able to call:
cell.parent(tag_name: 'table') # equivalent to `cell.table(xpath: './ancestor::table')`
There's no need for anything fancy, Watir has an Element#parent method.
You can use this one:
parent::node()
The below example will selects the parent node of the input tag of Id='email'.
Ex: //input[#id='email']/parent::*
the above can also be re-written as
//input[#id='email']/..
XPath tutorial for Selenium
I am trying to access data contained in a table that is itself contained in a table with class ='L1'.
So basically my html structure is like this:
<table class="L1">
<table>
<tr></tr>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td>data</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td>data</td>
</tr>
...ect...ect
</table>
</table>
I need to catch the data contained in a all <a> </a> that are in the second contained in <tr> </tr> but only starting with the second <tr> of the table.
So far I came up with that:
html_body = Nokogiri::HTML(body)
links = html_body.css('.L1').xpath("//table/tbody/tr/td[2]/a[1]")
But seems to me that this doesn't express the fact that I want to start only after the second <tr> (second <tr> included?
What would be the right code to do this ?
You can use position() to select the later elements that you want.
html_body = Nokogiri::HTML(body)
links = html_body.css('.L1').xpath("//table/tbody/tr[position()>1]/td[2]/a[1]")
As the comments on that SO answer say, remember XPath counts from 1, so >1 skips the first tr.
I'm trying to import some data from a HTML page with feeds importer. The context is this:
<table class="tabela">
<tr valign="TOP">
<td class="formulario-legenda">Nome:</td>
<td nowrap="nowrap">
<b>Raul Fernando de Almeida Moreira Vidal</b>
</td>
</tr>
<tr valign="TOP">
<td class="formulario-legenda">Sigla:</td>
<td>
<b>RMV</b>
</td>
</tr>
<tr valign="TOP">
<td class="formulario-legenda">Código:</td>
<td>206415</td>
</tr>
<tr valign="TOP">
<td class="formulario-legenda">Estado:</td>
<td>Ativo</td>
</tr>
</table>
<table>
<tr>
<td class="topo">
<table>
<tr>
<td class="formulario-legenda">Categoria:</td>
<td>Professor Associado</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="formulario-legenda">Carreira:</td>
<td>Pessoal Docente de Universidades</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="formulario-legenda">Grupo profissional:</td>
<td>Docente</td>
</tr>
<tr valign="TOP">
<td class="formulario-legenda">Departamento:</td>
<td>
<a href="uni_geral.unidade_view?pv_unidade=151"
title="Departamento de Engenharia Informática">Departamento de Engenharia Informática</a>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
I tried with this:
/html/body/div/div/div/div/div/div/div/table/tbody/tr/td/table/tbody/tr[1]/td[2]
but nothing appears. Can someone help me with the right syntax to obtain "Grupo Profissional"?
Quick answer that might work
Considering just the HTML sample you provided (which only has two tables) you can select the text you want using this expression, based on the table's position:
//table[2]//tr[3]/td[1]/text()
This will work in the HTML you pasted above. But it might not work in your actual scenario, since you might have other tables, the table you want to select has no ID and you didn't suggest some invariant text in your code which could be used to anchor the context for the expression. Assuming the initial part of your XPath expression (the div sequence) is correct, you might be able to use:
/html/body/div/div/div/div/div/div/div/table[2]//tr[3]/td[1]/text()
But it's wuite a fragile expression and vulnerable to any changes in the document.
A (possibly) better solution
A better alternative is to look for some identifier you could use. I can only guess, since I don't know your code. In your sample code, I would guess that Codigo and the number following it 206415 might be some identifier. If it is, you could use it to anchor your context. First you select it:
//table[.//td[text()='Código:']/following-sibling::td='206415']
The expression above will select the table which contains a td with the exact text Código: followed by a td containing the exact text 206415. This will create a unique context (considering that the number is an unique identifier). From that context, you can now select the text you want, which is inside the next table (following-sibling::table[1]). This is the context of the second table:
//table[.//td[text()='Código:']/following-sibling::td='206415']/following-sibling::table[1]
And this should select the text you want (Grupo profissional:) which is in the third row tr[3] and first cell/column td[1] of that table:
//table[.//td[text()='Código:']/following-sibling::td='206415']/following-sibling::table[1]//tr[3]/td[1]/text()
Given this HTML:
<tr class="even" id="district_22">
<td class="name">Virginia Beach City Public Schools</td>
<td class="">Delete</td>
</tr>
<tr class="even" id="district_23">
<td class="name">Virginia City City Public Schools</td>
<td class="">Delete</td>
</tr>
<tr class="even" id="district_24">
<td class="name">Virginia Town City Public Schools</td>
<td class="">Delete</td>
</tr>
I am trying to use Selenium and xpath with it.
I am having problems when trying to select the 'delete' link that belongs to 'Virginia Beach City Public Schools'.
I am new to xpath.
I am trying:
xpath=(//td[text()='Beach')]/#class.contains('delete'))
but it is not finding the element.
Note: I cannot use the ID as these are repeated tests and the ID changes each time.
Try this:
//td[contains(text(),'Beach')]/../td/a[contains(#class,'delete_link')]
tr[#id="district_22"]//a[contains(#class,'delete_link')] would be a lot better.
It's not good to look at the text. After all it may get localized and edited in other ways. ID's however are ment to be unchanging and not duplicated.
I think you want to execute a automate scripts in loop, if this is the case then you can try the below code:
for(i=1,dist=22; i<-count; i++,dist++)
{
....
....
driver..findElement(By.xpath("//*[#id=District_"+dist+"]/..."))
}
how use {cycle} with three values?
Whats wrong with this code:
<table>
<tr bgcolor="{cycle values='#aaaaaa,#bbbbbb'}">
<td bgcolor="{cycle values='#1112233,#334455'}">value</td>
<td bgcolor="{cycle values='#998811,#334466'}">value1</td>
</tr>
</table>
I think you need to give them unique names:
{cycle name='color1' values='#aaaaaa,#bbbbbb'}
{cycle name='color2' values='#1112233,#334455'}
{cycle name='color3' values='#998811,#334466'}
