Find xpath in html element using a part of href only katalon recorder, kantu, selenium ide, ui vision

I need to detect via xpath an element (image with href) but i know a part of href only

This is the html

<a href="/play.php?video=123456">
<div class="video-splash" data-src="https://myimge-555888.jpg?md5=dfgdfsdgsowVf0QnDcAg&amp;expires=16018841600&amp;origin=103&amp;mid=0df2fd8d-85b1-47da-a371-489a7328ffb4">
<div class="video-time"><i class="fas fa-play"></i> <b>HD</b> 43:25</div>
</div>
</a>

I know the video 123456 (part of href)

video number change periodically

data-src change periodically

I tried these xpaths but in this case do not work

xpath=//a[contains(@href, "123456")]

xpath=//a[ends-with(@href, '123456')]/img

xpath=//a[contains(@href, '123456')]/img

How can i detect the element using a part of href only ?

I need a xpath only that can detect the element please.

Need a generic xpath because some attributes are dynamic video=??? and data-src=??? and <b>???</b> ??? </div>

??? dynamic values that change always, i need to detect it via video number.

I add more html code

<div>

Solution

  • This is the solution

    xpath=//div/a[@href='/play.php?video=123456']

    Need to start xpath with //div/a

    Other solutions do not works.
