Hi,

I am trying to check if an <i></i> element exists on the web page.

I have a simple flow that checks for a UI element that is relatively deep in the web page.

table > tbody > tr > td > div > div > div > div:eq(1) > div > span > i

This returns false.

However, if I check for the other element (another <span> element) that is within the <span> element, it does find it. Like this:

table > tbody > tr > td > div > div > div > div:eq(1) > div > span > span

It seems it has an issue finding the <i> html element?

Are you able to share the website + element you're trying to search for, or is it confidential?

There could be lots of different reasons for this so its hard to narrow it down without trial and error.
if you can't share then for now try making it
more generic e.g. div > span > i,
or more specific e.g. table > tbody > tr > td > div > div > div > div > span:has(i) > i
it could not be selecting it because there are multiple similar paths as well so try looking for a list rather than a single value, if it finds a list then you need to make it more specific e.g. i:eq(0) at the end or something of similar nature.

If these don't work, let me know.

Thanks, I ended up solving it by just using the span above it. I still have no clue why it didn't work, but for now that solved my issue.
