Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

But we would need to select based on either the number or the name.
i.e. 57 is different to 58

Our html would be :

<input class="checkbox" type="checkbox" value="10137,Test Group,131,1" 
name="tcf_mpf_file_groups_[57]">
<span>TestGroup</span>

<input class="checkbox" type="checkbox" value="10138,Test Group2,132,1" 
name="tcf_mpf_file_groups_[58]">
<span>TestGroup2</span>

So how can we select either of these without using the name?

thanks,
/Iain...

Try using xpath instead of name in the setCheckbox attribute

example:
xpath=//input[contains(@name,'tcf_mpf_file_groups')]

Cheers!

Hi,

Within 1 of our tests we select a checkbox based on the id. However if the id's 
change
our tests are breaking and we find that it takes a while to fix the tests.

The HTML we have is:

HTML:
<input class="checkbox" type="checkbox" value="10137,Test Group,131,1" 
name="tcf_mpf_file_groups_[57]">
<span>TestGroup</span>

The Webtest command we use is:

<setCheckbox name="tcf_mpf_file_groups_[57]"/>

Is there anything else we can use to set the checkbox so that we would not be 
dependent on the
name?
Our issue is that the name i.e. tcf_mpf_file_groups_[57] can sometime change to 
be
tcf_mpf_file_groups_[58], thus causing our test to fail.

thanks in advance,
/Iain...
