Select the First of Multiple Same Elements

Problem

Often encountered in tables, if you have multiple elements with the same name, how do you select a specific one based on position in the list

Solution

If the element you want to select is .subTextCustomer.wordEllipses but there are multiple such elements on the page, and the only one you are interested in is the first one, then use this to select:

.subTextCustomer.wordEllipses:eq(0)
