Question

I have to identify a check-box using the label which follows it.
the code is the following:

<input type="checkbox" checked="" value="1" id="email-100-100" name="email-100-100">
<label for="email-100-100" class="firefinder-match">Email me when someone asks me to set a flag</label>
<br>
</td>

I tried

Target://following-sibling::label[text()=”Email me when someone asks me to set a flag”]
Target://preceding-sibling::label[text()=”Email me when someone asks me to set a flag”]

but in both cases selenium finds the text of label but not the check-box.

Could somebody help me in this?

Thank you in advance

Answer 1

Try

Target://label[text()="Email me when someone asks me to set a flag"]/../input[@type='checkbox']

It will work as long as the containing element of the label and checkbox only has one checkbox in it.
