As of now, I find myself resorting to the method of first performing a get_xpath_count, and then setting up a loop that increases an index variable. This variable is injected back into the original xpath to select the nth result... all in all, a very cumbersome process.
Is there a more straightforward, efficient way to iterate directly over the results from the xpath?
Thank you!
While your method is a straightforward approach to reaching your objective, Selenium 2 (WebDriver) offers a more refined solution. Here's an example in Java:
List<WebElement> hyperlinks = driver.findElements(By.xpath("//a"));
for (WebElement hyperlink : hyperlinks) {
System.out.println(hyperlink.getText());
}
This code snippet will display the text of each link on the web page in the console.
We have adopted a similar method as well. :)
If there happens to be an improved solution, I am open to seeing it too. However, I am inclined to believe that the current approach is the best option available.
Despite its shortcomings, with thorough explanation in the comments, the process becomes more manageable... :)
Currently, I am utilizing the HtmlAgility package in C# to retrieve the entire source code and apply the xpath to obtain a nodelist.
I have the ability to iterate through it. Additionally, you may experiment with using LINQ if desired.
Although I acknowledge that I am bypassing Selenium, it served its purpose at that particular moment.
