    Hi Ashok,



    Unfortunately as far as I know :contains CSS selector is not supported by TestComplete currently.

    If you have stable html text but no stable attributes, you can use either:

    1) var link = NativeWebObject.FindChild('innerHtml', 'Log Out', 1000)

    You'll have to map some object that will be a parent for 'Log Out' link in object browser.

    or

    2) var link = page.FindChildByXPath("//a[text()='Log Out']);

    You have to declare what is page before you use 2.

    for example:

    var page = Sys.Browser("*").Page("*");



    Hope it helps.
