I don't know how people feel about xPath but this is usually where I use
xPath. Using hard coded index is a bit inflexible in my opinion and
doens't tell you what it's really selecting. What if another item with
duplicate name appears and now you are selecting index 1, but with the
extra duplicate item, you really want to select index 2. I'm sure there is
something else on the page that is unique to each of those. If that is the
case, you can locate that unique element first, then traverse to the text
'Building Address' to make sure you select the right item.
If you show me the source, I can build the xPath to demonstrate what I am
trying to explain. :)
