how to count number of td/tr in a table with Robot Framework using Selenium2Library

Question

I am using Robot Framework to automatically check the number of TDs or TRs in a table. I am using Get Matching XPath Count keyword from Selenium, however, it always fails with an error. My sample HTML structure: ```

my td	my td
my td	my td
my td	my td
Search me	Pagination here

``` I am using the keyword with XPath : .//[@id='myTable']/tr/td/@width Because I just want to count td with a "width" attribute. and the error: InvalidSelectorException: Message: u"invalid selector: Unable to locate an element with the XPath expression... Any solution? thanks

Accepted Answer

You can use this XPath to get `<td>` having `style` attribute value contains `width` :

```
.//table[@id='myTable']/tr/td[contains(@style, 'width')]
```
