Document object model (DOM) element location platform

Abstract:

Aspects of the disclosure relate to processing systems using improved techniques for determining a location of a DOM element. A computing platform may generate, based on a markup language template, a DOM element tree and/or an XPath expression corresponding to a DOM element to be located. Using the DOM element tree (or XPath expression), the computing platform may generate an element selector set corresponding to the DOM element. Using the element selector set, the computing platform may determine a first DOM element result corresponding to multiple elements. Using the DOM element tree, and after determining that the first DOM element result corresponds to multiple elements, the computing platform may generate an updated element selector set corresponding to a parent element and the DOM element. Using the updated element selector set, the computing platform may determine a second DOM element result using the updated element selector set.
