wildcards

Are there any wildcard options when dealing with sahi objects? For example, on one page, I have to click a button. This button however, is always a different name like:
_image("edit_comment_63950")
_image("edit_comment_63951")
_image("edit_comment_63952")
So i'll never really know what # should be on the tailing end and there are no other elements on the page I can get the number from.
Are there any wildcards I can do like
_image("edit_comment_*")?
If not, can anyone think of a decent work around?
Thanks!
_image("edit_comment_63950")
_image("edit_comment_63951")
_image("edit_comment_63952")

I didn't tested it yet, but I think that your code might be something like this:
_image(/edit_comment_.*/)
I am also having same problem. I have list of radio buttons with their names as say, "abc[1]", "xyz[1]", "pqrs[2]", "lmn[4]" etc.
The index no. tailing behind is not static. But this wildcard solution is not working for me. I also tried _click(_radio(0,_near(_cell("/abc/"))));
But this also is not working. Kindly help in this issue.
Also, in my application I have few text boxes, which also are identified as "searchtext", "searchtext[1]", "searchtext[2]"...... by Sahi controller.
Code lines: _setValue(_textbox("/searchtext/"), "any input");
OR
_setValue(_textbox(/searchtext.*/), "any input");
do not work in this situation.
Any help will be much appreciated.

Can you please send us the HTML snippet of the radio buttons to support@sahi.co.in?
Which browser are you using to set a value? What version of Sahi are you using?
Also, could you please check if you are able to set values on other textboxes and other browsers.
