Dynamic web table

Post by SanMan » Fri May 04, 2018 8:36 am

Hi,

I have a webpage and there is a table:

Repo item:

.//dl[#'anchor-viewer-dynamic']/table[@class='table table-bordered table-hover dt-responsive']

Table cannot be highlighted ("The item exist but cannot be highlighted...")

How can I read data from this table?

Hi,

Unfortunately, without seeing, at very least, Ranorex snapshot, there is not much anyone here can do or suggest. Please post Ranorex snapshot or a sample web table, where we can simulate and examine your problem. Thanks.

Hi,

have anyone worked with web page which data is updated every second?

This site is working with Crome; is it possible to pause the updating process somehow from Chrome options?

Now only way I can read the data is this:

var something = divtagInfo.FindAdapter<DivTag>().GetInnerHtml();

Problem is that "var something" has so much other data what I am not interested.

Hi,

just found out that I can pause the update by setting "Disable JavaScript" from Chrome settings.

Then I can use Spy and read the wanted values.

When I enable JavaScript back on I can still read the values.

Should I use something "ensure visible" (or similar) to make sure values can be read while they are being updated?
