I am attempting to capture all the <a> tags on a web page, then logging all the hrefs from those a tags. Not sure how to get started, other than using the Loop action.
how can i use While Loop to capture all (e.g.) a tags?

you could use Loop While Recorder:Capture Object exists - then use wildcards in the selection for the capture so it can be iterated through.
A better way would be to captue the webpage as a file, then use a string operation to find each instance of the “<a href=” string and extract the url using something like a regular expression.
There are many different ways to perform this operation, you might need to go back and redefine the process.

Use Search with selector activity or Simple search for elements by tag
