so if i have 4 links i want click on second link and when i have 2 links click on 1st link

Solution

  • So you just want to click on the n/2th link?

    If you make lnk into an indexable list, that should be pretty easy. First make it a list:

    var lnk = browser.Links.Where(x => x.Url.Contains("example text")).ToList();

    Then you can reference elements by their index:

    lnk[lnk.Count / 2].Click();

    Conversely, you can use something like .Skip() in any enumeration so you don't have to incur the overhead of making it a list. Something like this:

    var lnk = browser.Links.Where(x => x.Url.Contains("example text"));
lnk.Skip(lnk.Count() / 2).First().Click();

    There are many methods available for enumerations which allow you to seek, transform, manipulate, and do just about anything you need to with the enumeration.
