get_numbers_child_by_name

get_numbers_child_by_name($name, $element_type = "", $frame = -1, $include_subchildren = false); - this function is used to get the numbers of elements that are children of a given element on the page, finding it by the specified name.

the input Function accepts parameters:

  • $name – the name by which we find the element we need on the page (string). To find out the name of an element, you can use either the element inspector, the context menu, or view it in the list of elements.
  • $element_type – type of child elements whose numbers we need to get (string). By default, an empty string (all types). It can be passed "anchor", "btn" , "button", etc., i.e. a string with the type of object to get the numbers for. Moreover, the numbers will be obtained for the specified type and using the numbering of the specified type.
  • $include_subchildren – also search for all child subelements. (available from version 7.0.23)
  • $frame – the number of the frame in which we are looking for the element (string). Frame numbers start from zero. By default, -1 - the element is not in the frame. You can find out the number of the frame that contains the item you need from the task inspector, the context menu, and the item list panel.
    With version 4.6.41 of postpone: you can pass nested frames, the principle is the same, a string is numbered frames separated by : for example, if you transfer "1:0:5" - will the selected frame number 1 in it under the frame with the number 0 and the subframe number 5
    Since version 7.0.38, you can pass "url=>XXX", then search for the frame that contains the specified src, or pass "name=>XXX" - then the frame will be searched by the specified part of the name.

    After the function returns the result of their work in the script :
  • item numbers is a string with the numbers of child elements separated by <br> (or the empty string if the element contains no child elements), the type of the return value string
  • false to find this element failed (e.g. no items that meet the specified criteria or not this frame)

    PHP example:

    <?php $xhe_host = "127.0.0.1:7013";
     
    //connect the object to control the emulator, if not already connected
    if(!isset($path))
      $path = "../../../Templates/xweb_human_emulator.php";
    require($path);
     
    //Start
    echo "<hr> <font color = blue> form->".basename(__FILE__)."</font> <hr>";
     
    //1
    echo("1.Let's go to the polygon:");
    echo($browser->navigate("humanemulator.net/poligon/btn.html")."<br>");
     
    //2
    echo("<br> 2.Get all the numbers of form elements named form1: <br> <br>");
    echo($form->get_numbers_child_by_name("form1", ""));
     
    //3
    echo("<br> <br> 3.Get all the numbers of the buttons of the form named form1: <br> <br>");
    echo($form->get_numbers_child_by_name("form1", "btn"));
     
    //4
    echo("<br> <br> 4.Get all the form elements named form1: <br> <br>");
    echo($form->get_numbers_child_by_name("form1", "", "- 1", true));
     
    //	five
    echo("<br> <br> 5.Get all the numbers of the input fields of the form named form1: <br> <br>");
    echo($form->get_numbers_child_by_name("form1", "input"));
     
    //6
    echo("<br> <br> 6.Get all the numbers of elements with the name form1 in the zero frame: <br> <br>");
    echo($form->get_numbers_child_by_name("form1", "", "0"));

    echo "<hr> <br>";

    $app->quit();
