I am trying to access the following HTML checkbox for a button click:
<input type="checkbox" data-ng-value="sf.name" data-ng-model="sf.checked" ng-click="ec.onStateFilterChanged(sf)" title="Select a state" class="ng-untouched ng-valid ng-dirty ng-valid-parse" value="Arizona">
using:
state = driver.find_element_by_xpath("input[#type='checkbox']").click()
but keep getting error:
selenium.common.exceptions.NoSuchElementException: Message:
what might be the element path I am looking for in order to select the checkbox?
Your xpath is most likely incorrect - you need to enter // before the element as this will find all (single slash / will work here too though as you are only trying to find one element and it will find the first match)
Try one of the following:
state = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[#type='checkbox']").click()
OR
state = driver.find_element_by_css_selector("input[type='checkbox']").click()

Trying to write a webscraper but I need to get into a website that requires an account. I'm going through 2 factor authentication to get in as that felt more secure than by username and password but I can't get Selenium to find the input for the 2fa code.
I tried every type of locater available and none of those work. The website does not appear to have a frame so I don't think that's the issue. I'm using an implicit wait as well so I believe the webpage has enough time to load.
I'm not really sure what I'm doing wrong at this point. I just keep getting an Unable to locate element error
Here the html for the item
<input class="sc-jzJRlG hxEkIM sc-VigVT gupvKM" data-testid="security-code" id="security-code" value="" autocomplete="off" autocorrect="off" spellcheck="false" maxlength="255" type="password" data-reactid=".0.1.0.2.1.1.0.0.1.0">
and my code
driver.implicitly_wait(10)
codeInput = driver.find_element(By.XPATH, '/html/body/div/div/div[2]/div[1]/div[3]/div/form/div/div[1]/div[2]/input')
enterButton = driver.find_element(By.XPATH, '/html/body/div/div/div[2]/div[1]/div[3]/div/form/div/div[2]/div/button')
codeInput.send_keys('123456')
action.click(enterButton)
action.perform()
and the Stacktrace

This error occurs despite of element is that <button class="LkLjZd ScJHi OzU4dc " jsaction="click:TiglPc" jsname="gxjVle" style="font-family: Roboto, "Noto Sans KR", sans-serif;">total review</button>
how to click the butten....
browser.find_element_by_xpath("//button[.='total review']").click()
You can click on it by it's text value most of it's identifiers seems dynamic
you can use the xpath of the element.
Install xpath Helper in your chrome.
Refresh the page or close it and enter again.
Click on addon from the toolbar.
Shift + click the element you needed.
Than browser.find_element_by_xpath()
PS: If it's a long string you can cut the start of it and replace with another /.
i can't find way to press button with selenium. tried to click on it by name and xpath, but it didnt worked.
this is sign in button on this site - https://account.envato.com/sign_in?to=audiojungle
this is code of button:
<input type="submit" name="commit" value="Sign in to your account" class="js-sign-in__submit e-btn--3d -color-primary -size-m -width-full h-mb2 h-mt1">
if i try to find it by x path, using - driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[#id="sign-in-form"]/div[6]/input').click()
or using - driver.find_element_by_name('commit').click()
it comes with this problem -
raise exception_class(message, screen, stacktrace)
selenium.common.exceptions.ElementClickInterceptedException: Message: element click intercepted: Element <input type="submit" name="commit" value="Sign In"formnovalidate="formnovalidate" data-disable-with="Sign In"> is not clickable at point (789, 309). Other element would receive the click: <p style="">...</p>
i don't remember evrything i tried, but i hope you understood me. i didn't find solution in internet, so i hope you will help me, thx)
Try this:
Option 1:
wait.until(ec.visibility_of_element_located((By.XPATH,"Your xpath")
Option 2:
Check if it is not in iframe.
Option 3:
Use Action or Javascript to click on button.
Hope this helps.
I want my code to enter value in the box below and move to the next page. I'm using selenium in Python to do this.
This is the HTML for the element.
<input name="ctl00$SPWebPartManager1$g_d6877ff2_42a8_4804_8802_6d49230dae8a$ctl00$txtPageNumber" type="text" value="260" maxlength="5"
onchange="return ValidateNumber(this);setTimeout('__doPostBack(\'ctl00$SPWebPartManager1$g_d6877ff2_42a8_4804_8802_6d49230dae8a$ctl00$txtPageNumber\',\'\')', 0)"
onkeypress="if (WebForm_TextBoxKeyHandler(event) == false)
return false;javascript:return isNumber(event);" id="ctl00_SPWebPartManager1_g_d6877ff2_42a8_4804_8802_6d49230dae8a_ctl00_txtPageNumber"
onpaste="return false;" style="width:60px;">
This is my code. How should get this to perform 'onkeypress' function?:
for i in range (2,10307): #looping over the page numbers
wait.until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.ID, "ctl00_SPWebPartManager1_g_d6877ff2_42a8_4804_8802_6d49230dae8a_ctl00_txtPageNumber"))).send_keys(i)
after waiting for the element, since you need only the function onkeypress, try execute script.
driver.execute_script("if (WebForm_TextBoxKeyHandler(event) == false) return false;javascript:return isNumber(event);")
I am writing a python script to input text, that then has a dropdown appear to select from a list of items. These items are all hidden values and are not inputted to the webpage until selected by clicking on said item.
Specifically I am attempting to input data on Fitbits website to track food (a thing for work, but it is tedious to input food consumption each day). I would like to automate this :)
My script currently looks like this...
#! python3
# fitbitSubmitFood.py this script submits the food log on fitbit.com
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
browser = webdriver.Chrome()
# open webpage to log food
browser.get('https://www.fitbit.com/foods/log')
# login to the website
# email username input
emailSelect = browser.find_element_by_xpath('//*[#id="loginForm"]/fieldset/dl/dd[1]/input')
emailSelect.send_keys('EMAIL')
# email password input
inputPassword = browser.find_element_by_xpath('//*[#id="loginForm"]/fieldset/dl/dd[2]/input')
inputPassword.send_keys('PASSWORD')
# click log in
clickLogin = browser.find_element_by_xpath('//*[#id="loginForm"]/div[1]/button')
clickLogin.click() # clicky click!
# input What did you eat?
foodSelect = browser.find_element_by_xpath('//*[#id="foodselectinput"]')
foodSelect.send_keys('Pizza, Bread') # select by visible text
# input How Much?
howMuch = browser.find_element_by_xpath('//*[#id="quantityselectinput"]')
howMuch.send_keys('3')
# click Log Food
logfood = browser.find_element_by_xpath('//*[#id="foodAutoCompButton"]')
# logfood.click() # clicky click!
# Close web browser
The current script above throws the following error.
selenium.common.exceptions.InvalidElementStateException: Message: invalid element state
So I have also tried suggestions from this stackoverflow question.
Entering a value into a type="hidden" field using Selenium + Python
WebDriverWait(foodSelect, 10).until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.XPATH,'//*[#id="foodId"]'))) # wait for hidden text to populate
This threw the following error...
selenium.common.exceptions.TimeoutException: Message:
Here is a snippet from the website
input type="text" name="foodselectinput" id="foodselectinput" class="text columnFull yui-ac-input" maxlength="80" tabindex="1" autocomplete="off"
I can see the following on the website for the hidden value. This value is not passed to the webpage until after the food is selected from the drop down menu.
input name="foodId" id="foodId" type="hidden" value="13272"
Note: I have already tried using the click method for the Pizza, Bread
clickFood = browser.find_element_by_xpath('//*[#id="foodselectcontainer"]/div/div[2]/ul/li[1]/div/div[1]')
clickFood.click() # click it!
This did not work.
selenium.common.exceptions.NoSuchElementException: Message: no such element: Unable to locate element: {"method":"xpath","selector":"//*[#id="foodselectcontainer"]/div/div[2]/ul/li[1]/div/div[1]"}
The script cannot continue until the food item is selected on the webpage. Hence, the question.
How would one pass the hidden value or select from a dropdown?
From your snippet
input type="text" name="foodselectinput" id="foodselectinput" class="text columnFull yui-ac-input" maxlength="80" tabindex="1" autocomplete="off"
yui-ac-input refers AutoComplete from YUI 2 Library (That's what I thought)
As the site mentioned by you asked credentials. I created a sample code for YUI Example
Sorry I dont know python.Below is a Java code. The syntax looks more or less same. So get the idea from below code and implement it
public void start() {
driver.get("http://yui.github.io/yui2/docs/yui_2.9.0_full/examples/autocomplete/ac_basic_array.html");
yuiAutoSuggestSelect("Cali");
}
public void yuiAutoSuggestSelect(String value) {
WebElement inputElement = driver.findElement(By.className("yui-ac-input"));
inputElement.sendKeys(value);
By autoSuggSel = By.xpath("//div[#class='yui-ac-container']//div[#class='yui-ac-bd']//li");
WebElement autoSuggestEl = driver.findElement(autoSuggSel);
WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOf(autoSuggestEl)).click();
}
