If you are doing it in python you can use time.sleep() function and pass any numeric value like time.sleep(10).It is done for your page to fully load then you can extract the value of those html elements using selenium's attributes like-:

driver.find_element_by_id('')
driver.find_element_by_css_selector('')
driver.find_element_by_class_name('')
driver.find_element_by_xpath('')
driver.find_element_by_link_text('')
driver.find_element_by_partial_link_text('').

Same could be done with xpath. Python sample will looks like follow:

driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[contains(@id, "your_static_part")]')

the id which is having numbers at the end

Assuming the id has something static in the beginning, you can check that id starts with something you know it would start with. Sample in Java:

driver.findElements(By.cssSelector("[id^=something_static]"));

Here the [id^=something_static] is a CSS selector and ^= is a starts-with notation.
