How to count the columns which loads run-time on scrolling - kamalteja - 08-27-2010

Hi Friends,

When you login to Yahoo mail, when hundreds of emails are there all doesn't load at once, user has to scroll little by little to view all the emails, in this case. how would you write the script to count total no. of emails in the Inbox.

Thanks,
Kamal Teja

Hi Kamal,

I tried counting the total number of mails in my yahoo mail inbox. Actually there is a WebTable consiting of 25 mail by default per page.You can retrieve the "rows" property of the WebTable and can see 26 if on that page the number of mails is full. So the number of mails is one less that the row size (26-1).

Now for the first time when you enter your inbox, you retrieve the "rows" property of the WebTable and store it in a variable say mailCounter. Then loop with a condition which checks if "Next" link exists (if there are more than one page of mails i.e. mor than 25 mails exists, the Next link exists, otherewise it doesn't)then click through the Next link and again count the number of mails on that page and add it to mailCounter and so on.

So now lets take a scenario where there are say 58 mails. So the total number of page here will be 3 (25+25+8). So at first when u land on inbox page you retrieve the "rows" property i.e. having value 26. Deduct 1 from it and store it in mailCounter(25). Then loop.So for the first time the condition satisfied because "Next" link exists. It'll click through the "Next" link and land on the 2nd page, retrieve the "rows" (26), deduct one from it and add it to mailCounter(50). Now it'll check for the condition.It again satisfies since there is a third page. So it'll click on the "Next" link and land on the 3rd page. Now it'll retrieve the "rows" property (9), deduct one from it and add it to mailCounter(58). Now it'll again check the condition which this time doesn't pass since "Next" link is no more available. It'll come out of loop. In this way you get the total number of mails i.e. 58 stored in mailCounter variable.

Hope it'll work.
