So, in the application, which I created, I use web browser to see the web page. I want to select element from this page and want to get Index of table which contains this element.

If someone can do it, please help me

    Are you asking how to find the row and column coordinates within a table of a selected one of its cells? – MartynA Mar 12 '14 at 16:33

Using the browser's DOM interfaces, locate the IHTMLElement interface of the desired HTML element as needed, then use its parentElement property to get its parent element, repeating as needed, until you find an element that supports the IHTMLTableCell interface. Its cellIndex property will tell you the index of the cell within its row. Keep iterating the parentElement chain until you find an element that supports the IHTMLTableRow interface. Its rowIndex property will tell you the index of the row within its table. If you need to access the table itself, keep iterating the parentElement chain until you find an element that supports the IHTMLTable interface.
