Re: [Wtr-general] Need to fetch the ID
Hi Sapna, You should really read something about Regular Expressions. You can start here. http://www.rubycentral.com/book/tut_stdtypes.html There is chapter named Regular Expressions. For now, try this (Bret left it in comment at my blog). (ie.link(:text, RE: Check Copy Request).href =~ /id=(.*)/)[1] Zeljko ___ Wtr-general mailing list Wtr-general@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general
[Wtr-general] Need to fetch the ID
Hi, I had posted this question earlier but did not get any information. So wanted to put the question again. Need help on this. Below is the HTML code. 1 I want to check whether the mail is read or unread depending on the mail icon(first line of HTML) 2 Want to fetch the id generated (id=1303) depending on which I will click on the message link and that would take me to read message window. img src=/AppsUIWeb/Themes/TopTabMenu/Images/mailopen.gifnbsp;6/8/2007 /tdtd a href=/AppsUIWeb/SelfService/MessageDetail.aspx?id=1303messageToUser=TrueRE: Check Copy Request/a /tdtd Thanks in advance.

I will assume that you know text RE: Check Copy Request This is how you can get href attribute of that link. irb ie.link(:text, RE: Check Copy Request).href = file:///C:/AppsUIWeb/SelfService/MessageDetail.aspx?id=1303messageToUser=True This will extract 1303. irb m = /id=(1303)/.match(ie.link(:text, RE: Check Copy Request).href) = #MatchData:0x2d147b8 irb m[1] = 1303 For more information see class MatchData ( http://phrogz.net/ProgrammingRuby/ref_c_matchdata.html) Zeljko ___ Wtr-general mailing list Wtr-general@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general
Re: [Wtr-general] Need to fetch the ID
Hi Zeljko, I have a quesion on the code you sent me. Kindly find the question below the code. This will extract 1303. irb m = /id=(1303)/.match(ie.link(:text, RE: Check Copy Request).href) = #MatchData:0x2d147b8 Q: Here I mention the id but I want to fetch automatically because the id keep changing for every message replied. Hope my explaination is fine. irb m[1] = 1303 ___ Wtr-general mailing list Wtr-general@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general
