John,
I've done this in the past by grabbing all the links of a
certain type and storing them to an array. Then, with your random
number variable (let's call it "n"), you can just do ArrayName(n) to
grab one. For instance:
## For each link $ie finds, do the following: Take my Array, and
add the href address of each link if and only if the address looks like
"http://www.google.com";.
hrefs = Array.new
url = "http://www.google.com";
ie.links.each do |link|
hrefs << link.href if /(#{url})/ =~ link.href
end
## Then, using .length, you can grab the length of your Array and
use it as your random number endpoint.
length = hrefs.length #grab the length
random = rand(length) #set a random number up to that
link
newlink = href[random] #set the link choice to the
variable newlink
ie.goto newlink #go to it!
The above code can be simplified into two lines or so, but I wanted you
to be able to see what I was doing.
Hope that helps!
Thanks,

Subject: [Wtr-general] count specific links
Hi,
I want to count all links in the page which have "catalog/tree" in their
url and then click one randomly. I know how to generate a random number,
but how can I count the number of links?
Thanks!
John
