Examples

The following code example retrieves a named TABLE from a document, counts up the number of rows, and displays the result in the Web page. The code example requires that you have a WebBrowser control in your project named WebBrowser1, and that you have loaded a Web page with a TABLE whose ID attribute is Table1.

private Int32 GetTableRowCount(string tableID)
{
    Int32 count = 0;

    if (webBrowser1.Document != null)
    {
        HtmlElement tableElem = webBrowser1.Document.GetElementById(tableID);
        if (tableElem != null)
        {
            foreach (HtmlElement rowElem in tableElem.GetElementsByTagName("TR"))
            {
                count++;
            }
        }
        else
        {
            throw(new ArgumentException("No TABLE with an ID of " + tableID + " exists."));
        }
    }

    return(count);
}

Private Function GetTableRowCount(ByVal TableID As String) As Integer
    Dim Count As Integer = 0

    If (WebBrowser1.Document IsNot Nothing) Then

        Dim TableElem As HtmlElement = WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementById(TableID)
        If (TableElem IsNot Nothing) Then
            For Each RowElem As HtmlElement In TableElem.GetElementsByTagName("TR")
                Count = Count + 1
            Next
        Else
            Throw (New ArgumentException("No TABLE with an ID of " & TableID & " exists."))
        End If
    End If
    GetTableRowCount = Count
End Function

Remarks

If there are multiple elements in the document with the same ID value, GetElementById will return the first one it finds.
