ID on Label Not Button

Posted on by JG-23070703-0

Hello, can someone help me progress this flow, I am thinking top down which is not working

In this dynamic list the button does not have an ID I can identify, but the associated label does

I would like to click the button where the label div title = "myVar"

Any guidance would be much appreciated

You can use the javascript similar like below and set your title value into some variable and pass to javascript&colon;

Javascript code:

function ExecuteScript() { // Find the div element with the title attribute set to "03.02 Academic" var divElement = document.querySelector('div[title="${Claimant}"]'); // Find the button element preceding the div if (divElement && divElement.previousElementSibling && divElement.previousElementSibling.tagName === "BUTTON") { var buttonElement = divElement.previousElementSibling; // Trigger a click event on the button element buttonElement.click(); } }

I continue to be challenged by UI Elements on this Webpage, I though I had it licked when I worked out the source of the rowid
So I wrote the UI element like li[rowid=%myRowIDVar%] > div > button[type="button"]
but it does not work
If I type the the text li[rowid="135"] > div > button[type="button"]
And click Test it fails
Very confused

I have created similar website for your understanding

And created the below flow to click my div button based li row id:
JavaScript used:

function ExecuteScript() {
document.querySelector('li[rowid="%KeyValue%"] button.selectItem').click();
}
