Dynamic Text Fields

[xboredx]

I am wondering how to get past dynamic text fields? It seems as if the application relies on searching for the name attribute of the field, or is there another way to get past this?

So for example lets say I have a form and each time I refresh the browser the user name field changes.

refresh 1.
name=ewrfd

refresh 2.
name=05494

refresh 3.
name=of894

and on and on.

Ideas???

need to look unchanging attributes such as coordinates of

other option could be to use regex for it...

like this for example: name=.*

As long as there is allways name= infront changing part, this will work

Using the width property also work wonders

name=.* is a really bad idea if your after a high success template. If you had made a few universal templates you would know lots of platforms use "name=" for multiple fields, thats the purpose of using the tag "name".

Steps85 suggestion is best practice, just look for the stuff either side of the form in the DOM that doesn't change site-to-site to regex
