trying to use "contains" on a dynamic id of a checkbox

[jorisstander]

Hi, I've been trying to make seleniumbase press a checkbox that changes it's id every time the page refreshes. The css selector looks like this #checkbox-14. The number after - (14) keeps changing and i was wondering if it was possible to use contains here for the id.
I tried the following but it could not find it this way:
sb.click('input:contains("checkbox")')

That would just be selector of type: TAG[ATTRIBUTE^="VALUE"].

In your case: input[id^="checkbox"]
(for an input element that has an id that starts with checkbox)

Your full method call: sb.click('input[id^="checkbox"]')
