How do you handle dynamic element in Selenium?

starts-with
if your dynamic element's ids have the format  where button id="continue-12345"  where 12345 is a dynamic number you could use the following
XPath: //button[starts-with(@id, 'continue-')]
contains
Sometimes an element gets identfied by a value that could be surrounded by other text, then contains function can be used.
To demonstrate, the element can be located based on the ‘suggest’ class without having to couple it with the ‘top’ and ‘business’ classes using the following
XPath: //input[contains(@class, 'suggest')].
