Absolute xpath

[Suman Varma]

Is there a way to get absolute xpath?

When use the the copy xpath option, I get something like: //*[@id="mx5277[R:0]"]
I want the absolute path. Ex:- /html/body/table[2]/tbody/tr/td/table/tbody/tr/td/table/tbody/tr/td/table/tbody/tr[2]/td/div/table/tbody/...

I can see the absolute xpath in the tooltip when I inspect the element, but I can't copy it.

Yep, this is generated for elements with ID.

Agree, this should be possible, and it sounds like a good new feature to me.
