For example:
To find a link with text "click me" the Xpath is //a[text()='click me'.
What should be the equivalent in cssSelector which will be used to identify the same element in firebug and firepath?
a[text='click me'] is unable to find the same element.
Please help
In CSS and Xpath elements can be find using their attributes like the following:
CSS : tagname[attribute='text']
CSS : tagname[innerText=’text’] or tagname[textContent=’text’]
Xpath: tagname[@attribute='value']
For any other browser(except FireFox) you can use tagname[innerText=’text’] i.e a[innerText='linkname']
For Firefox you can use tagname[textContent=’text’] i.e, a[textContent='linkname']
