Select a Table in IE by Class

[Aart01]

I am using a script to select a table from the Ebay results page after searching for a keyword.

I do this by using:

$oTable = _IETableGetCollection ($oIE,13)

As I am using multiple keywords in different category's I am running into the trouble that it is

not always "table nr 13" where the results are displayed by Ebay.

So I am looking for a different way to identify this table.

Is there a way to identify this table through class?

This is the source:

<TABLE class="ebItemlist single" cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=4>

Something like below can help you out (read help on _IETagNameGetCollection)

$oElements = _IETagNameGetCollection ($oIE, "TABLE")

;For all objects on HTML page of type TAG

consolewrite("Tag found occurences: " & $oElements.Length & @crLF)

for $i=0 to $oElements.length-1

;For each attribute of an HTML element check if match is there

for $k=0 to $oElements($i).attributes.length-1

$tAttr=$oElements($i).attributes($k).name

$tValue=$oElements($i).attributes($k).value

consolewrite($tAttr & ":" & $tValue & @crLF)

next

Perhaps a little more simply:

$oTables = _IETagnameGetCollection($oIE, "table")
$index = 0
For $oTable in $oTables
    ConsoleWrite($index & ": " & $oTable.className & @CR)
    $index += 1
Next
