如何查找-为2标签标签之间的文本编写xpath

Question

I am need to find the xpath to get value 300 from the below html page. I have used xpath as //label[contains (text(),'of')]/following-sibling::text() - from stackoverflow answers - but it didn't work out well. my next action is based on this value. So I need to read it.

<td class="clsLineCounterLabel">
<input id="lineCounter" class="clsLineCounter" tabindex="-1" size="4" value="0" readonly=""/>
<label id="lblOf" for="Of">of</label>
        300 
<label id="lblAllowedTextLines" for="AllowedTextLines">allowed text lines</label>
</td>

Any help ?

Answer 1

The text 300 belongs to the <td> tag. Try

String value = driver.findElement(By.className("clsLineCounterLabel")).getText();

value will be 300 .

And the xpath is

//td[@class='clsLineCounterLabel']

Answer 2

Use below code:

String value = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//input[@id='lineCounter]/parent::td")).getText();

Print value on console it will print you whole text of td, then filter integer value.

Hope this will work.

Getting the 300 is kind of tricky since it doesn't have its own node.

You could get the 300 with some JavaScript with the element as argument:

WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.id("lblOf"));
String txt = ((JavascriptExecutor)driver).executeScript(
  "return arguments[0].firstChild.textContent;", element);

Or with a single JavaScript call:

String txt = ((JavascriptExecutor)driver).executeScript(
  "return document.getElementById('lblOf').firstChild.textContent;", element);

Or by extracting the number with a regex:

String txt = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id='lblOf']/.."))
                   .getText().replaceAll("[^\\d]", "");
