How to select checkboxes randomly

[Peiyuan]

Hello,

 I have a list of checkboxes. Do you know how to select checkboxes randomly from the list?

 If I selected a checkbox by simply recording it, the code would use HtmlInputCheckBox to do the operation like clicking. 

 My original thought is using random checkbox id so that I can selected checkbox randomly. When I use Find.ById() to locate a check box element, the return type is element which does not have method like clicking.

 Hope you guys can help me with this. Thanks!

Hello Peiyuan,

You can search for an HTML input checkbox and cast it properly like this:
HtmlInputCheckBox chkBox = ActiveBrowser.Find.ById<HtmlInputCheckBox>("my random id here");

My question to you is how are you going to generate a random ID to search for?

Hello Cody,

 Thanks for answering! I will try your solution right now.

The checkbox ID in my test page is following a rule. I can generate a random checkbox ID by the rule.

Thanks,
