I am trying to use selenium to click certain buttons within the bank of america simulator, but the buttons don't seem to ever click. No new link is reached, which is something I haven't encountered before.
https://message.bankofamerica.com/onlinebanking_demo/OLB_Simulator/
I want to click "Sign in options" and then click "Sign in: Recognized device"
I tried using selenium to click the button and I get no error. Nothing happens at all and the program continues, so I know it's not an issue with not finding the button. My current code is as follows:
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=Service(ChromeDriverManager().install()))
driver.get('https://message.bankofamerica.com/onlinebanking_demo/OLB_Simulator/')
sleep(3)
login_button = driver.find_element("id", "landing_sign")
driver.execute_script("arguments[0].click();", login_button);
This code worked fine for me.
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.wait import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=Service(ChromeDriverManager().install()))
driver.get('https://message.bankofamerica.com/onlinebanking_demo/OLB_Simulator/')
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 10)
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.ID, "landing_sign")).click()
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "a[aria-labelledby='signInOpt3']")).click()
NOTE: Using sleep is a bad practice, use WebDriverWait and wait for the specific state you need instead.
To click on the clickable elements you need to induce WebDriverWait for the element_to_be_clickable() and you can use the following locator strategies:
Code block:
driver.get('https://message.bankofamerica.com/onlinebanking_demo/OLB_Simulator/')
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "button#landing_sign"))).click()
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "a[href='/onlinebanking_demo/OLB_Simulator/SignIn/recognized']"))).click()
Note: You have to add the following imports :
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

I am trying to press a button with selenium. The page comes up, but it does not press the button. I am new to this, and also the page as a GEO block for any one in the UK. I am using a windows 10 laptop.
This is the code I have so far:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.select import Select
import time
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path = r'G:/scraping_practice/chromedriver_win32/chromedriver.exe')
driver.get('https://www.maxpreps.com/tx/basketball/21-22/stat-leaders/scoring/ppg/')
search_button = driver.find_element(By.xpath('/html/body/div[1]/div[4]/div[1]/div/div[2]/div[3]/div/div/ul/li[2]/button'))
search_button.click()
To click on the element with text 2 you need to induce WebDriverWait for the element_to_be_clickable() and you can use the following locator strategy:
Using XPATH:
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//div[#class='controls']//ul/li/button[text()='2']"))).click()
Note: You have to add the following imports :
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
I want to go from this page to this https://resultats.ffbb.com/organisation/b5e6211d5970.html to this page https://resultats.ffbb.com/championnat/b5e6211f621a.html?r=200000002810394&d=200000002911791&p=2 by clicking on 'Régional féminin U15'.
I have tried many solutions but the best I had, is not working systematically.
Please coul you help me?
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
import selenium.webdriver.support.ui as ui
import time
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.get("https://resultats.ffbb.com/organisation/b5e6211d5970.html")
driver.switch_to.frame("idIframeChampionnat")
#sign_in = WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, '/html/body/pre/span[93]'))).click();
button = driver.find_element_by_partial_link_text(u"minin U15")
button.click()```
To click() on the link with text as Régional féminin U15 as the elements are within an iframe so you have to:
Induce WebDriverWait for the desired frame to be available and switch to it.
Induce WebDriverWait for the desired element to be clickable.
You can use either of the following Locator Strategies:
Using CSS_SELECTOR:
driver.get("https://resultats.ffbb.com/organisation/b5e6211d5970.html")
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.frame_to_be_available_and_switch_to_it((By.CSS_SELECTOR,"iframe#idIframeChampionnat")))
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.LINK_TEXT, "Régional féminin U15"))).click()
Using XPATH:
driver.get("https://resultats.ffbb.com/organisation/b5e6211d5970.html")
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.frame_to_be_available_and_switch_to_it((By.XPATH,"//iframe[#id='idIframeChampionnat']")))
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.LINK_TEXT, "Régional féminin U15"))).click()
Note : You have to add the following imports :
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

You can find a couple of relevant discussions in:
Switch to an iframe through Selenium and python
selenium.common.exceptions.NoSuchElementException: Message: no such element: Unable to locate element while trying to click Next button with selenium
selenium in python : NoSuchElementException: Message: no such element: Unable to locate element
Try
driver.switch_to.frame("idIframeChampionnat")
button = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//a[contains(text(), 'minin U15')]")
button.click()
or
driver.switch_to.frame("idIframeChampionnat")
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//a[contains(text(), 'minin U15')]"))).click()
This is my code example in groovy (sorry, haven't python env), pretty similar to yours, and it works perfectly 20 times in a loop even without timeouts.
#Test(invocationCount = 20)
void test() {
driver.get('https://resultats.ffbb.com/organisation/b5e6211d5970.html')
driver.switchTo().frame(
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//iframe[#id='idIframeChampionnat']"))
)
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//a[contains(text(), 'minin U15')]")).click()
driver.switchTo().defaultContent()
assert driver.getCurrentUrl() ==
'https://resultats.ffbb.com/championnat/b5e6211f621a.html?r=200000002810394&d=200000002911791&p=2'
}
So, I have no ideas. Maybe just add driver.switch_to.default_content() after click?
I'm trying to write a script to fill out a form but I'm struggling to click the free sim link, I have tried using multiple different identifiers but can't seem to get any to work. Greatly appreciate any help! Thank you
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.common.action_chains import ActionChains
import time
PATH = "C:\Program Files (x86)\chromedriver.exe"
driver = webdriver.Chrome(PATH)
driver.get("https://mobile.lebara.com/gb/en/free-sim")
driver.implicitly_wait(5)
cookie = driver.find_element_by_id("onetrust-accept-btn-handler")
freesim = driver.find_element_by_class_name("product-item payAsYouGoProductListerItem clickable")
actions = ActionChains(driver)
actions.click(cookie).perform()
driver.implicitly_wait(5)
actions.click(freesim).perform()
You have to deal with "accept cookies" banner (click on it, you don't need actions, only EC then click)
replace all implicit waits in your code with expected_conditions
(In case all these recommendations don't work for you have to update your question with code and selenium exceptions)
You need to click "Accept cookies" or execute JS code to hide "Your cookies" overlay and then search for link.
driver.implicitly_wait(5)
cookie = driver.find_element_by_id("onetrust-accept-btn-handler")
cookie.click()
freesim = driver.find_element_by_link_text("Free Sim")
freesim.click()
Note that you're trying to pass multiple class names to find_element_by_class_name (you need to pass one only) and call driver.implicitly_wait(5) several times (you might do this only once)
Your class name contains spaces and thus are actually multiple class names. You can make a CSS selector by prefixing each class name with a dot.
CSS Selector ->> ".product-item.payAsYouGoProductListerItem.clickable"
You also have to wait until the element is clickable before you click. Add this to/change this in your code. The rest of your code works fine.
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
....
....
....
freesim = WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, ".product-item.payAsYouGoProductListerItem.clickable")))
freesim.click()
To click on the element Free Sim you can use either of the following Locator Strategies:
Using css_selector:
driver.find_element_by_css_selector("button#onetrust-accept-btn-handler").click()
Using xpath:
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//a[#href='free-sim-direct']").click()
Ideally, to click on the element you need to induce WebDriverWait for the element_to_be_clickable() and you can use either of the following Locator Strategies:
Using CSS_SELECTOR:
driver.get("https://mobile.lebara.com/gb/en/free-sim")
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "button#onetrust-accept-btn-handler"))).click()
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "a[href='free-sim-direct']"))).click()
Using XPATH:
driver.get("https://mobile.lebara.com/gb/en/free-sim")
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//button[#id='onetrust-accept-btn-handler']"))).click()
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//a[#href='free-sim-direct']"))).click()

I know, there are plenty of tutorials out there for this task. But it seems like I'm doing something wrong, I need help by telling me how to press it, doesn't need to be by text.
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
try:
element = WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(
EC.presence_of_element_located((By.LINK_TEXT, 'login or register'))
)
element.click()
except:
print('exception occured')
driver.quit()
I'm trying to press the "login or register" button from the site wilds.io, but it seems like it can't find that button after 10 seconds. I'm probably accessing the button in a wrong way.
To click on the element with text as login or register you have to induce WebDriverWait for the element_to_be_clickable() and you can use either of the following Locator Strategies:
Using LINK_TEXT:
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.LINK_TEXT, "login or register"))).click()
Using PARTIAL_LINK_TEXT:
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.PARTIAL_LINK_TEXT, "login or register"))).click()
Using XPATH using text():
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//*[text()='login or register']"))).click()
Using XPATH using contains():
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//*[contains(., 'login or register')]"))).click()

I need a script which logs me in to github and presses a Read the guide button. I've got it to log in but after it's done it does not work any more. Please help.
from selenium import webdriver
browser = webdriver.Firefox()
browser.get('https://github.com/session')
login_area = browser.find_element_by_name('login')
login_area.send_keys('maximmashkov')
login_area = browser.find_element_by_id('password')
login_area.send_keys('12345')
submit_button = browser.find_element_by_name('commit')
submit_button.click()
To click() on the element with text as Read the guide you have to induce WebDriverWait for the element_to_be_clickable() and you can use either of the following solutions:
Using LINK_TEXT:
WebDriverWait(browser, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.LINK_TEXT, "Read the guide"))).click()
Using CSS_SELECTOR:
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "a.btn.btn-primary[href='https://guides.github.com/activities/hello-world/']"))).click()
Using XPATH:
WebDriverWait(browser, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//a[#href='https://guides.github.com/activities/hello-world/' and text()='Read the guide']"))).click()
Note : You have to add the following imports :
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
Most probably your script fails to wait for the "Read the guide" button to appear, consider using Explicit Wait so Selenium could wait for a defined period of time for the element to appear in DOM
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
#initialize your browser here
login_area = browser.find_element_by_name('login')
login_area.send_keys('maximmashkov')
login_area = browser.find_element_by_id('password')
login_area.send_keys('12345')
submit_button = browser.find_element_by_name('commit')
submit_button.click()
submit_button = browser.find_element_by_name('commit')
submit_button.click()
read_the_guide = element = WebDriverWait(browser, 10).until(
EC.presence_of_element_located((By.LINK_TEXT, "Read the guide")))
read_the_guide.click()
browser.quit()

You only have to put a little time.sleep() delay. One second is enough
