import java.util.List;

import org.openqa.selenium.By;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;

import org.openqa.selenium.htmlunit.HtmlUnitDriver;

public class Nooflinks {

     public static WebDriver driver = new HtmlUnitDriver();

     public static void main(String[] args) {

           //open browser

           driver.get("http://www.google.com");

           //get all the list of links into a list of type webelement

           List<WebElement> link=driver.findElements(By.tagName("a"));

           //print total no of link s in page

           System.out.println(link.size());

           for(WebElement w:link){

                //display links using foreach loop

                System.out.println(w.getText());

           }

     }

}

I Hope this code gives you some idea.....you can find any type of tag....just replace "a" with other tags like input,div,select etc..
