How to find value in hidden field in grid/table

[Cheryl]

Hi

I have a datagrid/table where for each row (except the header) there are some hidden values, some showng info and a button.

What I'm wanting to do is loop through the rows and find in the first column the values in 2 hidden fields.  If hidden1 and hidden2 match datavalue1 and datavalue2 then I can find the correct rowindex and therefore find the correct button to click.

I can successfully loop through the rows of the table, but i'm not sure how to find the value of the hidden fields for EACH row as I loop through.

I can find it on the page using

Dim cpolicy As HtmlInputHidden = Pages.TravelInsuranceSalesSystem1.Get(Of HtmlInputHidden)("id=ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_TestGrid_ctl02_cpolicy")

but not for each cell as I'm unsure how to refer to a partial ID for a hidden field.

This is what I have so far, the htmlinputhidden is incorrect:

For Each r As HtmlTableRow In Pages.TravelInsuranceSalesSystem1.ContentPlaceHolder1TestGridTable.AllRows
               if r.RowIndex <> 0 then
       'ignore the header row
                   For Each c As HtmlTableCell In r.Cells

                           if c.CellIndex = 0 then
                           'column 1 only

                               Dim cpolicy As HtmlInputHidden = c.Get(Of HtmlInputHidden)("id=~cpolicy")

                               if cpolicy.Equals("TI") then
                                   Log.WriteLine("cpolicy:" & cpolicy.Value )
                               end if
                           end if
                   Next
               end if
           Next

FYI

I've managed to find a solution for this. Instead of this

Dim cpolicy As HtmlInputHidden = c.Get(Of HtmlInputHidden)("id=~cpolicy")

I'm using this which works:

Dim cpolicy As HtmlInputHidden = Pages.TravelInsuranceSalesSystem1.Get(Of HtmlInputHidden)("id=ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_TestGrid_ctl0" & r.rowindex + 1 & "_cpolicy")
