This works sometimes, and is a good idea. Having stable HTML ids for unique HTML elements also makes facilitates good CSS styling, I understand. However, when this is not practical, you can omit the HTML id altogether from the markup, because then Selenium IDE will automatically look for other ways of identifying the element. These are typically xpath expressions operating on the DOM tree. You can of course also write them yourself to the test script, if you like xpath ;) When using Selenium in a more white-box-way, testing single components within developer tests, there is also the possibility of getting the dynamic markup id directly from the component object. This can be done at least with SeleniumTestCase of Wicket Bench and I believe also with jdave-wicket-selenium http://www.jdave.org/modules.html Best wishes, Timo -- Timo Rantalaiho +358-45-6709709 Reaktor Innovations Oy <URL: http://www.ri.fi/ > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
