How to access a specific row from web table

I'm trying to select a specific row having class name as 'topicRow post' from the table given below

Code on website

<table class="content" width="100%">
<tbody>
    <tr class="topicTitle">
    <tr class="topicSubTitle">
    <tr class="topicRow post">
    <tr class="topicRow_Alt post_alt">
    <tr class="topicRow post">
    <tr class="topicRow_Alt post_alt">
    <tr id="forum_ctl03_ctl00" class="header2">
    <tr class="post">
    <tr>
</tbody>
</table>

Selenium code

WebElement Webtable=driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@class='content']"));
List<WebElement> TotalRowCount=Webtable.findElements(By.xpath("//*[@class='content']/tbody/tr[contains(@class,'topicRow post')]"));
System.out.println("No. of Rows in the WebTable: "+TotalRowCount.size());

Problem

Every time it prints the size of all the rows present in table. Please guide...

In your code, you had already use Webtable to find rows, but you still repeat the xpath portion "//*[@class='content']" for Webtable in the Webtable.findElements().

Change your code as below:

List<WebElement> TotalRowCount=Webtable.
    findElements(By.xpath(".//tr[contains(@class,'topicRow post')]"));

Or change to use driver.findElements() with repeated xpath portion:

List<WebElement> TotalRowCount=driver.
     findElements(By.xpath("//*
      [@class='content']/tbody/tr[contains(@class,'topicRow post')]"));

If above two ways don't work as expected, try below code:

WebElement table = driver.findElement(By.css("table.content"));
List<WebElement> foundRows = table.findElements(By.css("tr.topicRow.post"));
System.out.println("Found rows count： "+ foundRows.size());

Use thread.sleep() Here is the code

Thread.sleep(5000);
List<WebElement> TotalRowCount = driver.findElements(By.xpath("//*[@class='content']/tbody/tr[contains(@class,'topicRow post')]")); 

System.out.println("No. of Rows in the WebTable: "+TotalRowCount.size());

You can give an index, 1 for the first match and 2 for the second

Webtable.findElements(By.xpath("//*[@class='content']/tbody/tr[contains(@class,'topicRow post')][1]"));
