full xpath does not math the correct field in python selenium

I have a following problem. On the picture bellow I would like to fill some text into the second (red) field.
My code:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import Select
from selenium.webdriver.common.action_chains import ActionChains
def set_scraper():
"""Function kills running applications and set up the ChromeDriver."""
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument("--start-maximized")
driver = webdriver.Chrome("/usr/lib/chromium-browser/chromedriver", options=options)
return driver
def main() -> None:
"""Main function that is call when the script is run."""
driver = set_scraper()
driver.get("https://nahlizenidokn.cuzk.cz/VyberBudovu/Stavba/InformaceO")
pokus = driver.find_element(By.XPATH, '/html/body/form/div[5]/div/div/div/div[3]/div/fieldset/div[2]/div[2]/input[1]')
driver.implicitly_wait(10)
ActionChains(driver).move_to_element(pokus).send_keys("2727").perform()
The problem is that it sends "2727" into the first field, not into the red one. Although /html/body/form/div[5]/div/div/div/div[3]/div/fieldset/div[2]/div[2]/input[1] is the full xpath of the second field. Do you know why, please?

You can use XPath to locate the parent element based on unique text "Obec" in the child element and then locate the proper input element.
Here I'm using fixed attribute values that not seem to change.
The following code works:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
options = Options()
options.add_argument("start-maximized")
webdriver_service = Service('C:\webdrivers\chromedriver.exe')
driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=options, service=webdriver_service)
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 10)
url = "https://nahlizenidokn.cuzk.cz/VyberBudovu/Stavba/InformaceO"
driver.get(url)
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//div[#class='fieldsetWrapper'][contains(.,'Obec')]//input[#type='text']"))).send_keys("2727")
The result is:

Try with below
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
element = WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//input[#title='Zadejte název obce']")))
element.send_keys("2727")

You can enter the text in the second text field using the below XPATH:
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, ".//input[#name='ctl00$bodyPlaceHolder$vyberObec$txtObec']").send_keys("2727")
# clicking on the button
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, ".//input[#title='Vyhledat obec']").click()

Selenium NoSuchElementException: Message: no such element

I am struggling with Selenium
for the url: https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/2078
I am trying to click the button Download, but it doesn't find the element.
My code:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.common.exceptions import TimeoutException
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from ipykernel import kernelapp as app
import time
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
driver_path = 'C:\\Users\\Idener\\Downloads\\chromedriver_win32\\chromedriver.exe'
driver = webdriver.Chrome(driver_path, options=options)
url = f"https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/2078"
driver.get(url)
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//*[#id='"'page-download-btn'"']").click()
enter image description here

Your XPath is not valid. You don't need so much quotes
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//*[#id='page-download-btn']").click()

You are missing a delay.
Element should clicked only when it is completely rendered and ready to accept a click event. WebDriverWait expected_conditions explicit waits should be used for that.
Also, no need to add f before URL value and '"' instead of ' in XPath expression.
The following code will work for you:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.common.exceptions import TimeoutException
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from ipykernel import kernelapp as app
import time
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
driver_path = 'C:\\Users\\Idener\\Downloads\\chromedriver_win32\\chromedriver.exe'
driver = webdriver.Chrome(driver_path, options=options)
url = "https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/2078"
driver.get(url)
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 10)
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.ID, "page-download-btn"))).click()

Close pop-up window on website using Selenium

So I'm trying to scrape some information from a website and can't get through a pop-up window. I've tried using short and full Xpath of the X button but it doesn't close.
here is my code
# import
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.common.exceptions import TimeoutException
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path = 'mypath/chromedriver.exe')
driver.get('https://ai.fmcsa.dot.gov/SMS')
driver.find_Element_By_xpath('//*[#id="simplemodal-container"]/a').click();
The code does open the website but doesn't close the pop-up. What might be the issue?

You automation script needs an explicit waits, and the below xpath :-
//a[#title='Close']
Code : -
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path = 'mypath/chromedriver.exe')
driver.maximize_window()
#driver.implicitly_wait(50)
driver.get("https://ai.fmcsa.dot.gov/SMS")
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 20)
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//a[#title='Close']"))).click()
Imports :
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

If you want to use your code as is:
# import
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.common.exceptions import TimeoutException
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path = 'mypath/chromedriver.exe')
driver.get('https://ai.fmcsa.dot.gov/SMS')
driver.find_Element_By_xpath('/html[1]/body[1]/div[7]/a[1]').click();
This worked for me and closed the pop up window.

Use Selenium to download data but the input textbook has a default list to choose instead (Python)

I am trying to open a page by inputting the stock code in the textbox and press search. But the input stock code automatically generates a list of other possible things to choose from. How can I choose the only first time of such list?
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import Select
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
url = 'https://www1.hkexnews.hk/search/titlesearch.xhtml'
browser = webdriver.Firefox(executable_path = 'C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\geckodriver.exe')
StockList = ['02192']
browser.get(url)
txtBox = browser.find_element_by_id('searchStockCode')
txtBox.send_keys(StockList[0])
txtBox.submit()

You can use below xpath to click on first option that is being populating.
//div[#class='slimScrollDiv']/descendant::tbody/tr[1]
and click it like this :
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 20)
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//div[#class='slimScrollDiv']/descendant::tbody/tr[1]"))).click()
Imports :
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
In case you are looking for full working code :
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.common.action_chains import ActionChains
driver = webdriver.Firefox(executable_path = "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\geckodriver.exe")
driver.maximize_window()
driver.implicitly_wait(30)
driver.get("https://www1.hkexnews.hk/search/titlesearch.xhtml")
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 20)
StockList = ['02192']
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.ID, "searchStockCode"))).send_keys(StockList[0])
ele = wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//div[#class='slimScrollDiv']/descendant::tbody/tr[1]")))
ActionChains(driver).move_to_element(ele).click().perform()
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "a[class*='applyFilters']"))).click()

Python Selenium not able to find element for Create New Account button on website

Here is my code so far, note that the web page loads up with a captcha. I countered this with adding a time.sleep so I can run tests. When I try to submit the form by submitting "Create new account", I get an error saying the element has no attribute for 'submit'. I tried finding the element using xpath, css_selectos, tags, class names, etc.
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import Select
import time
browser = webdriver.Chrome()
browser.get('https://www.bstn.com/en/register/address')
time.sleep(35)
elam = browser.find_element_by_css_selector("[value='Create new account']")
elam.Submit()

If you are trying to click on Create new account button after filling information then please find below xpath to click on it
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(
EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//input[#class='button radius charcheck-submit']"))).click()
Another solution with action class
from selenium.webdriver.common.action_chains import ActionChains
from selenium.webdriver import ActionChains
actionChains = ActionChains(driver)
submit = WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(
EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "//input[#class='button radius charcheck-submit']")))
actionChains.move_to_element(submit).click().perform()
Working code
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import Select
import time
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
browser = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=r"C:\New folder\chromedriver.exe")
# browser = webdriver.Chrome()
browser.get('https://www.bstn.com/en/register/address')
time.sleep(35)
WebDriverWait(browser, 10).until(
EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//input[#class='button radius charcheck-submit']"))).click()
