hi, just bought Fake. Great tool. Still I am not sure how to be able
to use a counter as a variable in a XPath string. Basically I have to
access a loong list of elemnts via XPath, the DIV[] part will count up
to 2500.

/HTML[1]/BODY[1]/SPAN[1]/DIV[4]/DIV[1]...
/HTML[1]/BODY[1]/SPAN[1]/DIV[4]/DIV[2]...


So I thought of something like
--

Repat
number of times: 2500

Click HTML Element
for XPath /HTML[1]/BODY[1]/SPAN[1]/DIV[4]/DIV[$vmyar]

End Repeat

--
But I need to know if the var will be accepted in the XPath string and
how I can increment it by 1

Hi Roberto, here's how to do that:

and here's a downloadable workflow to get you started:

hope that helps!

Hi there,

I'm trying to adapt this script to my case.

my question: how to start from 1 and not 0?

I guess we should set the loop.index to 1 right? but how to do this?

thanks so much for your help!

Best,

Xavier

Hi Xavier,

No, you cannot set the value of `fake.loop.index`. It is there to tell you which iteration you are currently on. Setting it would not make sense.

Just increment your own index variable by 1.
