    Hi William,

     

    Sorry for the late reply. If by "disabled" you mean any of these:

     

    <input type="hidden" .../>
<input type="text" disabled .../>
<input type="text" readonly .../>

    then the query for enabled inputs shoud be something like:

     

    var arr = page.EvaluateXPath("//input[@type!='hidden' and not (@readonly or @disabled)]", true);

Thank you very much. Obvsiously I need to learn XPath. One more question:

 

How do you specify a second predicate for the input where the input is also enabled?

 

    var page = Sys.Browser().Page("*").Panel("primaryWrapper").Section("primaryContent").Frame("*").Section("actionWrapper").Section("actionContent");

    var arr = page.EvaluateXPath("//input[@type!='hidden']", true);

 I've earnestly tried to find the answer online to no avail.
