How to click links with same name in a webtable?

[qtplearner88]

Hi,
I have a web portal. In that there is one table of 4 rows and 5 coulmns. The last column contains links. These links are of same name. There is not html id for those links. Only distinguishing factor is index property(ordinal identifier). But I am not sure how to use that.

I would like to read the rows and columns first and have to click the links as I wish. Is this possible or is there any other way.

Please help me in this. Thanks in advance!!

Hi,

U have 4 rows and 5 columns and u want to click the link on last column.
To Click a particular link u first read the data from coulmn 1 or 2 for a particular row, if this is what u r looking for in this table and get the row id and click the link on that particular row id.

Hi,
No, html id and row id are different. U have to navigate through all rows using for loop.

Code:

For i=1 to rowcount
if <condition to check the required data on particular cell of table>
set objLink=Browser().page().webtable().childitem(i,5)-->get the link to Click
objLink.Click
msgBox("Row id for this link was"&i)
Next

This is a rough code..u can get a feel of what u need to do.

You can also use the index function, which correspond to the link order in the object. Index 1 = link 1, Index 2 = link 2, etc. However, this will result in clicking the wrong item if the "correct" links aren't always the same index item.
