Working with tables

To simplify working with tables there is a special wrapper called WebTable. A table could be a html <table> tag with or without <thead> and <tbody> element or any other tag composition in the following format:

<container>
    <row>
        <col>Row 0 Col 0</col>
        <col>Row 0 Col 1</col>
    </row>
    <row>
        <col>Row 1 Col 0</col>
        <col>Row 1 Col 1</col>
    </row>
</container>

To create WebList wrapper from element with given id use code as follows

var table = browserAdapter.GetTableWithId("SampleTable");

You can also convert an existing element (IPageFragment) to table using ToWebTable() method.

When you have WebTable instance, you can access items and columns using indexer notation

table[1] //access second row
table[1][0] //access second row, first column
table[1][0].Text //access second row, first column cell's text
table[0]["Column Name"] //access first row, column with caption  "Column Name" 

or one of special methods

list.First() //access first row
list.First().First() //access first row, first column
list.Last().Last() //access last row, last column
list.FindItemWithText("Example row")[1] //access row with text "Example row", second column

To get number of rows use Count property.

Examples

 <table id="SampleTable">
	<thead>
		<tr>
			<th>Lp</th>
			<th>First name</th>
			<th>Last name</th>
			<th></th>
		</tr>
	</thead>
	<tbody>
		<tr>
			<td>1</td>
			<td>John</td>
			<td>Nash</td>
			<td><button>Delete</button></td>
		</tr>
		<tr>
			<td>2</td>
			<td>Steve</td>
			<td>Jobs</td>
			<td><button>Delete</button></td>
		</tr>
	</tbody>
</table>

Click delete button in the second row

var table = browserAdapter.GetTableWithId("SampleTable");
table[1].ClickOnElementWithText("Delete");

or

var table = browserAdapter.GetTableWithId("SampleTable");
table[1][2].ClickOnElementWithText("Delete");

Get text from "First name" column of the first row

var table = browserAdapter.GetTableWithId("SampleTable");
Console.WriteLine(table[0]["First name"].Text);
