如何从Java的Selenium RC中的属性获取值？

Question

I have this code for xpath and html:

<a class="WatchButton inicon" rel="nofollow" data-productid="111124"> 

xpath=/html/body/div[2]/div[2]/div/div[2]/div[1]/div[1]/div[2]/div[8]/a

How can I get the data-productid value?

Answer 1

Just add @data-productid to the xpath expression:

/html/body/div[2]/div[2]/div/div[2]/div[1]/div[1]/div[2]/div[8]/a/@data-productid

Note that the xpath expression you have is very fragile since it depends on a bunch of elements and their relevant positions. Try to rely on the element's attributes or one of it's containers - look for id and class attributes. For example:

//a[contains(@class, "WatchButton")]/@data-productid

This gets the first link anywhere on a page that contains WatchButton class and retrieves it's data-productid attribute value.

_{* Sharing the link to the web page or showing the complete HTML could help to provide you with a more reliable xpath expression.}
