SELENIUM REAL TIME INTERVIEW QUESTIONS - How we can retrieve the dynamically changing Ids? When we login Facebook the login label's id changes dynamically thus resulting in failure.

We have a hierarchy of locators and Facebook Is dynamic in nature,so we are not able to use "id" for identification for after that we have remaining 7 locator's for that :2. xpath ().. 3. name..4. css.. 5. link text.. 6. partiallinktext...7.tag name. so u can use any one for identifying it. Most probably u can use "xpath" or "css-locator" and if there r tag then link text or partial-link text. it depend on u . But we never use id's in Ajax application because it’s not possible.
