Hello

Currently i am using this code:

**String js = ‘$(“#policy\_options\_6594”).modal(“show”);’**

**WebUI.executeJavaScript(js, null)**

So as the ID is dynamic its pretty much useless for testing purposes. Could you share the html of the element so we can try and find a better way of locating this element.
