Hi George, It's not a site developed by my team. Our role is to apply the automation test on it. I have no way to change anything on it. To use the index attribute on HTML source. And access it using the :index.
But I've tried this anyway, using the :index hoping it will bind the tabindex. But, it was just a hope, it doesn't work (same error).
