Using 'ends-with' XPath 2.0 Expression in Chrome with Selenium

[Nicolas Benavides]

Hey there,

I need to use a specific `ends-with` Xpath 2.0 expression, but I have found Chrome only supports Xpath 1.0, Is there any way to force it, I mean a plugin, Selenium option, or whatever possibility?

Appreciate any help!

Hi,

Yes you can do it the long way.

Given you go to Google.com

When you open the dev tools 

And search for the following: //*[substring(@id, string-length(@id) - string-length('Fqb') + 1)  = 'Fqb']

Then the search text area will be located

The actual id of the search textarea is "APjFqb"

Cheers,

Adrian.
