Re: [Webtest] Xpaths obtained from X-path explorer are not recognised by canoo

[Prasanna]

Hi   I made changes in xpath as per Your Suggestion .. Unfortunately No success Yet I would like to state that I need clickElement property wit this xpath ass the xpath I am refering is an Image On clicking that Image some other actions will follow   But I did not find ClickButton and ClickLink useful as it is an onClick event clicking on image would also do trick for me But I am simply not able to click on that image . or Onclick Event   my HTML source looks like   <tr><td colspan='2' onMouseOver='MO_fold(event)' onMouseOut='MU_fold(event)' class='fold_none' onClick="foldermenu_gotourl('DistributionManager.aspx?folder_no=15&group=')"><img src='../AllImages/images/icons/i_folder.gif' hspace='5' align='left'>Prasanna</td></tr> Note that the iamge names used here are same for other rows in table to In such a situation How do I define xpath ? Is there any solution to my problem ? Please Let me know If anyone has handled such events       ----- Original Message ----- From: Denis N.

Specifically, it inserts a <tbody> in each table, so your xpath should be: //[EMAIL PROTECTED]'Form1']/table[2]/tbody/tr[2]/td/table/tbody/tr/td[2]/table[4]/tbody/tr/td[1]/table/tbody/tr/td[2]/table/tbody/tr[4]/td/table/tbody/tr/td/table/tbody/tr/td[2]/img Note that this is indeed a very long xpath, you may consider simplifying it. But that's a different question.
