Searching for HTML elements in Chrome DevTools
73,988
Solution 1
I searched for the XPath of the element instead and it worked:
//*[@class="item"]
Solution 2
Late answer but pretty sure .item would've worked.
Solution 3
Search bar only supports string, CSS selectors or XPath selectors.
I recommend you use CSS selectors: [class="item"]

On this website, there's a
divwith the attributeclass="item". When I clicked F12 to bring up the Developer Tools. I pressed Ctrl + F and typed inclass="item"and no results came back. I also tried Ctrl + Shift + F but nothing returned. Here is a screenshot:
Even if I search for
class=, only text within HTML comments are found. Thanks in advance for any help you are able to provide. -

It is not suitable for routine needs like "this particular image fails to lazyload, I must find it by a string present in one of its attributes, but I don't know which one exactly because this is what I am yet to debug".
