XPath to select a table row that has a cell containing specified text

Question

How do I select a table row that has a cell containing specified text with XPath?

Answer 1

Use:

ExpressionSelectingTable/tr[td//text()[contains(., 'targetString')]]

This means:

Select every tr that is a child of any table selected by the expression ExpressionSelectingTable and that (the tr) has at least one td child that has at least one text-node descendent that contains the string 'targetString'
