Validating xpath in chrome gives syntax error

[Vinod Ujjal Boruah]

I was trying to validate the xpath of the search box of weikipedia as shown in the video tutorial
$x{"/input[@id='searchInput']"}
SyntaxError: Unexpected token {
Please rectify my syntax

[bswjitsamal]

Please try

$x{"//input[@id='searchInput']"}

you need to put "//" in-front of the code since you are using xpath. this is the basic syntax

Hi,

Still facing with same error as "Unexpected Token {". Can anyone help please. Attached screenshot for reference.

I believe it is a simple syntax error.

Replace { } with ( ) in your xpath.
