Hi,

 

I would do this by using a variable in the XPath. You can write an XPath that looks for your element on the webpage based on the value of your attribute in AA.

 

I would imagine that the DOMXPath would look something like this:

//a[text() = "Your Variable Here"]

 

If you aren’t comfortable writing your own DOMXPaths, this tutorial gives a great overview of how it works: 

 

I hope this helps
