Exercise

Top Level Text

This exercise will have you write an XPath and CSS Locator string to direct to the text of a specific paragraph p element. The p element in the HTML is uniquely defined by its id attribute, which is "p3". With this small piece of information, you should be able to create the desired strings; however, we have preloaded the variable html with a string containing the HTML in which this link belongs, if you want to peruse it.

In this exercise, you will only be selecting the text within the element, which does not include the text in future generations of the element. We have created a function print_results for you to compare which elements your strings direct to.
