Using text as identifying an element in cdp-mode?

[Rapid1898-code]

Hello - is there any way to identify an element using only the text in cdp-mode?

For example this is not working for me:
sb.cdp.click(f'//p[text()="{inpDuration}"]', timeout=longWAIT)
so i have to use some more complex logic like:
sb.cdp.click_nth_element('//ul[@data-popper-placement="bottom-start"]//a[contains(@class,"dropdown-item")]', inpDuration)

Is there any solution to get an element simply according to the text?
(is working fine when i do this in the chrome-inspection -but not when i try to use the xpath with cdp)

Use the :contains(TEXT) selector via CSS, example:

SeleniumBase/examples/cdp_mode/raw_indeed.py

Lines 16 to 25 in 0034475

	sb.click('a:contains("%s")' % company)
	name_header = 'div[itemprop="name"]'
	sb.sleep(1)
	if not sb.is_element_present(name_header):
	sb.sleep(2)
	sb.uc_gui_click_captcha()
	sb.sleep(1)
	sb.cdp.highlight(name_header)
	sb.sleep(1)
	sb.cdp.highlight('h2:contains("About the company")')

Note that XPath is not supported for CDP Mode (unless it's a simple selector that can be converted easily into CSS).

Thanks a lot - this seems to work for me.
It it possible that this kind of seletor
h2:contains("About the company")
is not working in the chrome inspection window?

:contains("TEXT") is a special CSS Selector that works with SeleniumBase, but not with the Chrome inspection window.

ok - thanks also for that clarification - so this problem is done

It's from jQuery syntax, if that helps: https://api.jquery.com/contains-selector/
