How do we use OR operator with Desc Programming.

[anu05446]

say I want to count the nos of all the objects on the page which have
html tag = "A" OR innertext="B"
what will be the syntax for the same.

Code:

(Desc("html tag").value="A")  OR (Desc("innertext").value="B") => throws syntax error.

TIA

Hi Anu,
you have to use regular expresssion - (|) pipe symbol.

Checkout regular expression topic in qtp helper guide.

thanks for your reply, I know regular expressions but I am not sure how to use it in this case? can you tell me how. ?? I hope you understood the question.

one way we can do this is first count the objects individually with html tag = "A" add this count to the objects having innertext="B" now from this total count subtract the objects which have html tag = "A" and innertext="B".
