I have HTML code.






<div _ngcontent-c30="" class="message__main"><p _ngcontent-c30="">Куплю</p><ul _ngcontent-c30="" class="message__conditions  list  list--inline"><!----><li _ngcontent-c30="" class="list__item ng-star-inserted"><p _ngcontent-c30="" class="list__key">Кол-во:</p><p _ngcontent-c30="" class="list__value">1 10³ м.</p></li><li _ngcontent-c30="" class="list__item"><span _ngcontent-c30="" class="point"></span></li><!----><li _ngcontent-c30="" class="list__item ng-star-inserted"><p _ngcontent-c30="" class="list__key">Цена за ед.:</p><p _ngcontent-c30="" class="list__value">1,00&nbsp;₽</p></li><li _ngcontent-c30="" class="list__item"><span _ngcontent-c30="" class="point"></span></li><li _ngcontent-c30="" class="list__item"><p _ngcontent-c30="" class="list__key">Сумма:</p><p _ngcontent-c30="" class="list__value">1,00&nbsp;₽</p></li></ul></div>





I need to check that the correct number is displayed (it is with a decimal part).



I think it’s wrong to contact the locator twice, expecting it to be right once. I want to do something like contains(.,"^123(.|,)123$")



so it is possible?
if not. how do it with another methods

In XPath 2.0 you can do



matches(., "^123(.|,)123$")


In XPath 1.0 you could try



translate(., ',', '.') = "123.123"


In SO questions, please always say which XPath version you are using, since 1.0, 2.0, and 3.1 are all in common use.

  • The built in XPath processor in Chrome is XPath 1.0, so you can't use my 2.0 solution (unless you install a third-party processor such as Saxon-JS).
