Issues identifying table data for HTML table checkpoint verification..

[SamuraiJack]

Working with the HTML Table Checkpoint in VB script and I'm trying to figure out how to identify the data on simple table,  I included a screenshot of what the page looks like.  Any advice for moving forward?



Object finder shows it as:



Aliases.iexplore.pagePolicyList1.formAspnetform.panelMainlayoutcontainer.table.cell.table.cellMainmiddlecolumn.panelAutopolicylist.table.cell.panelPolicysummarybarmaincontain.table.cellBarcell.linkCtl00MainpagecontentPolicyli.textnode0024248



The code for this piece of data looks like this in View Source: 





<table style="width: 100%;">

    <tr>

        <td style="width: 90px;" class="barcell">Policy #<br />

<a id="ctl00_MainPageContent_PolicyList1_rptrListAuto_ctl01_PolicySummaryBar_ClientVisibilityToggleLinkControl1_hlVisible" onclick="ToggleVisibility('ctl00_MainPageContent_PolicyList1_rptrListAuto_ctl01_PolicySummaryBar_ClientVisibilityToggleLinkControl1_hlHidden'); ToggleVisibility('ctl00_MainPageContent_PolicyList1_rptrListAuto_ctl01_PolicySummaryBar_ClientVisibilityToggleLinkControl1_hlVisible'); ToggleVisibility('divDetail0024248'); return false;" href="../Common/Controls/#void" style="display: none;"><span>0024248</span></a>

<a id="ctl00_MainPageContent_PolicyList1_rptrListAuto_ctl01_PolicySummaryBar_ClientVisibilityToggleLinkControl1_hlHidden" onclick="ToggleVisibility('ctl00_MainPageContent_PolicyList1_rptrListAuto_ctl01_PolicySummaryBar_ClientVisibilityToggleLinkControl1_hlHidden'); ToggleVisibility('ctl00_MainPageContent_PolicyList1_rptrListAuto_ctl01_PolicySummaryBar_ClientVisibilityToggleLinkControl1_hlVisible'); ToggleVisibility('divDetail0024248'); return false;" href="../Common/Controls/#void"><span>0024248</span></a>
