Count number of specific elements on a web page - janriis - 09-24-2010

Hi all

I have 2 web pages in my app that are almost identical. I cannot identify them by URL or objects as the objects are named runtime.

Page 1 has 3 web radio groups and page 2 has 6 web radio groups. My idea now is to count the number of elements i.e. web radio groups, but how do i do that with descriptive programming ?

Hi

Use 'ChildItemCount' function.

Code:
ItemIndex=Obj.ChildItemCount(row, col, "WebRadioGroup")

Hope this will help you.

hi,

As per the above discussion, count function will give you the count of your desired elements.

Now before that,to differntiate the browers you can use ordinal identifiar (EX: Index).

Code:
Browser("Name:= abc","Index :=0").Page("innerhtml := def").Activate 

Browser("Name:= abc","Index :=1").Page("innerhtml := def").Activate

Use the appropriate names.Hope it should work for you...

Hi QTPLearn,

Do you really think that using "ChildItemCount" method would solve the Janris Question?

FYI, "ChildItemCount" method is applicable for Object classes such as WebTable,SAPTable,WbfGrid only.

Hi Sreekant

I have used 'Child ItemCount' for my project for counting checkboxes,radiobuttons,webelements,thats why I suggested that but if you have any better solution then please provide it.

It will help all of us to learn new approach.

HI,
I would suggest to try in the below approach.

Code:
Set Brw=Description.Create

 Brw("micclass").Value="Browser"

 Set Pg=Description.Create

 Pg("micclass").Value="Page"

 Set Wrg=Description.Create

 Wrg("micclass").Value="WebRadioGroup"

 Set Brw_Collection=Desktop.ChildObjects(Brw)

 msgbox "No. of Browsers: "& Brw_Collection.count

     Set Br1_Pgcollection=Brw_Collection(0).childObjects(Pg)

     Set Br1_Pg1_WrgCollection=Br1_Pgcollection(0).ChildObjects(Wrg)

     msgbox "No. of WebRadioGroups in Browser1,Page1 : "&Br1_Pg1_WrgCollection.count

     Set Br2_Pgcollection=Brw_Collection(1).childObjects(Pg)

     Set Br2_Pg2_WrgCollection=Br2_Pgcollection(0).ChildObjects(Wrg)

     msgbox "No. of WebRadioGroups in Browser2,Page2 : "&Br2_Pg2_WrgCollection.count
