You can use an element's inner text to locate the element. Try using the following XPATH to locate the link: //td[@class='expandCollapseLink']/a[contains(text(),'[+]')]

You may find this to be a useful cross-reference for different XPATH/CSS selectors in the future. I use it very frequently: https://www.simple-talk.com/dotnet/.net-framework/xpath,-css,-dom-and-selenium-the-rosetta-stone/

//td[@class='expandCollapseLink']/a should be all the xpath selector you need. //td[@class='expandCollapseLink']/a[contains(@onclick,"toggleIds")] should also work and be a bit more specific.
