capybara regex xpath not working

问题

I have the following hmtl code. li id is increasing sequentially, and I want to generate regex so as to use in xpath but is not working:

irb#1(main):044:0* find(:xpath, "//li[@id = 'divPictureAndPrices_productListItem1']")
=> #<Capybara::Node::Element tag="li" path="/html/body/div[2]/div[7]/div[2]/div/div[3]/ol/li[2]">
irb#1(main):045:0>
    irb#1(main):017:0* all(:xpath, "//li[matches(@id, '^divPictureAndPrices_productListItem\d{0,2}$')]")
Selenium::WebDriver::Error::InvalidSelectorError: invalid selector: Unable to locate an element with the xpath expression //li[matches(@id, '^divPictureAndPrices_productListItemd{0,2}$')] because of the following error:
SyntaxError: Failed to execute 'evaluate' on 'Document': The string '//li[matches(@id, '^divPictureAndPrices_productListItemd{0,2}$')]' is not a valid XPath expression.

this is also not working:

find(:xpath, "//li[matches(@id, '^divPictureAndPrices_productListItem\d{0,2}$')]")

please help me on solving problem?

回答1:

matches is supported only in xpath2.0.

if your xpath processor is 1.0 compliant only, then you must use contains.

回答2:

find(:xpath, "//li[contains(@id, 'divPictureAndPrices_productListItem')]")
