noob I am following this python selenium webscraping tutorial /watch?v=lTypMlVBFM4 I don't know why it won't get the title from youtube and print it

I am trying to scrap this site https://www.youtube.com/#JohnWatsonRooney/videos for the video titles.
This short explination does not help with the problem of the code but I thought I would say it anyway. I am doing this so I can get my foot in the door to then scrap other sites for prices on stuff so I can make a program that gives me a link to the cheapest priced product from a list several sites
as well as a ranking of all the other products and there names incase that wasn't the one I was looking for.
here is the terminal output.

here is my code

driver.get(url1)

for video in videos:
titles = video.find_element_by_xpath('//\*\[#id="video-title-link"\]').text
print(title)
I don't know what to try I did my best looking up this problem before posting. I know waiting for the browser to load the page doesnt work hense the time.sleep(10) in my code.

If you are looking to find the links of all the videos in the given page, you can use below code
import time
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
url1 = 'https://www.youtube.com/#JohnWatsonRooney/videos'
url2 = 'https://www.youtube.com/#MyCraftyDen/videos'
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.get(url1)
time.sleep(10)
videos = driver.find_elements(By.ID, "video-title-link")
for video in videos:
title = video.get_attribute("href")
print(title)

Selenium - how to continue with url list after hitting a offline website?

may I ask please with some assistance on the following task I'm trying to complete. Im trying to use Selenium to automatically check a list of urls and do a set of click actions on each of them, if the website is offline I would like to go to the next urls on the list and do the same click actions.
Bellow is the code that I have achieved so far, however it doesn't work:
from selenium import webdriver ## importing webdriver
import time ## importing waiting time fuctions
from selenium.common.exceptions import TimeoutException ## importing the timeout fuctions
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
## Setting the Timeout timer in seconds
MAX_TIMEOUT_SECONDS = 60
## Getting url from list "url"
urlsList = ['urlone','urltwo', 'urlthree', 'urlfour']
## Getting list of urls
for s in urlsList:
urls = str(s)
## loop with timeout exception
try:
## Activinting the Timeout fuctions
driver.set_page_load_timeout(MAX_TIMEOUT_SECONDS)
driver.get(urls)
## Clicking on tab
systemTab = driver.find_element_by_xpath('/html/body/ul[1]/li[3]/a')
systemTab.click()
## Clicking on Bottom
buttonRaul = driver.find_element_by_xpath('/html/body/ul[2]/li[4]/a')
buttonRaul.click()
## Clicking on confirmation
buttomGoo = driver.find_element_by_xpath('/html/body/div[2]/div[2]/button')
buttomGoo.click()
time.sleep(5) ## Wait 5 seconds
except TimeoutException:
continue
driver.quit()
I tried using timeout as form to determinate if a website is offline/not responding after 60 seconds, however when the I run the code, the code online work until it hits a off-line website and stops there.

I am trying to reply this question in java as I am not much familiar with Python.
When you run the test offline mode, we can use the loadingFailed() to get the logs from browser i.e – net::ERR_INTERNET_DISCONNECTED and then you can proceed to next URL.
import org.openqa.selenium.devtools*;
driver = new ChromeDriver();
devTools = ((ChromeDriver)driver).getDevTools();
driver.get("https://www.homepage.com");
devTools.createSession();
devTools.addListener(loadingFailed(), loadingFailed ->
{
System.out.println(loadingFailed.getErrorText());
Assert.assertEquals(loadingFailed.getErrorText(), "net::ERR_INTERNET_DISCONNECTED");
});

Im pretty new to Selenium and python, The first url runs as it should be, however my second url is currently offline, The second url open the window and after 10-20seconds the following message shows and the code stop running:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Users/sweatynerd/Desktop/smtautomation.py", line 19, in <module>

In order to work with Python correctly, it is crucial to learn to read the stack trace. In your case, these lines
File "C:\Users\ruzgaricatsirketi\Desktop\test.py", line 13, in <module>
getir = driver.find_element_by_id('result_box').text
say that the exception has its origin on line 13 in your file test.py, where you are trying to search for web element with id attribute set to value "result_box". Exception you have got is NoSuchElementException:
selenium.common.exceptions.NoSuchElementException: Message: no such element: Unable to locate element: {"method":"id","selector":"result_box"}
As you can find in official documentation or many other places (and I bet there are thousands of them), this exception is raised when the element you are searching for is not found.
Try it yourself — open your tested Google Translator page and try to search for element with any existing id. E.g. on line 8 in your test file you are trying to locate element with id "gt-speech". Write document.getElementById("gt-speech") to your browsers console and whoala! It works, this node matches your search:
<div id="gt-speech" class="speech-button goog-toolbar-button"...>...</div>
Note especially the id="gt-speech" attribute, it is the one selenium will use to identify the object. However, if you try the same with id "result_box", you will get nothing (null is returned if using JS console to search for element), because there is no such element on the page (thus NoSuchElementException...).
My advice for you:
inspect the element you are trying to locate (on the most of the popular web browsers on Windows/Linux systems it is as easy as right-clicking the element and selecting the inspect option)
select some unique properties, you can use also other properties than id (preferably not inner text; IDs are best, but they are not always present...)
use those properties to find the element using selenium
And please, next time try to search a bit on your own before you ask, because this is some really really trivial problem you should be able to handle after first 5 minutes of any selenium course (in other words, UTFG :P)
EDIT
P.S. I can see you have got that invalid id from the video you have marked as your source. The fact that element with such id was present one year ago does not mean it will be there forever (an for every platform). If you need to get that certain element, you have to find another way how to define it using selenium locators I have mentioned earlier.

StaleElementReferenceException when trying to click on the links in a loop

Please click on the link below to see the link "BEAUTY" on which I am clicking
1. I am using this code to click on the "Beauty" link
driver = webdriver.Chrome("C:\\Users\\gaurav\\Desktop\\chromedriver_win32\\chromedriver.exe")
driver.maximize_window()
driver.get("http://shop.davidjones.com.au")
object = driver.find_elements_by_name('topCategory')
for ea in object:
print ea.text
if ea.text == 'Beauty':
ea.click()
I am getting the following exceptions after clickin on the link succesfully , can anybody tell me why I am getting it ?
Traceback (most recent call last):

Try this:
from selenium import webdriver
print("bot started")
#chromeOptions = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
#driver = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=chromeOptions)
def specific_text(text, ea):
return str(text) == ea.text
driver = webdriver.Chrome("C:\\Users\\gaurav\\Desktop\\chromedriver_win32\\chromedriver.exe")
driver.maximize_window()
driver.get("http://shop.davidjones.com.au")
object_ = driver.find_elements_by_name('topCategory')
text_headers = [str(specific_text('Beauty', ea)) for ea in object_]
#print(text_headers)
index_text = text_headers.index("True")
#print(index_text)
object_[index_text].click()

You need to take care of certain factors as follows :
You have tried to create a List by the name object. object is a reserved built-in symbol in most of the Programming Languages. So as per Best Programming Practices we shouldn't use the name object.
The line print ea.text is badly indented. You need to add indentation.
Once you invoke click() on the WebElement with text as Beauty you need to break out of the loop.
Here is your own working code with some minor tweaks :
from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=r'C:\path\to\chromedriver.exe')
driver.maximize_window()
driver.get("http://shop.davidjones.com.au")
object1 = driver.find_elements_by_name('topCategory')
for ea in object1:
print (ea.text)
if ea.text == 'Beauty':
ea.click()
break
Console Output :
Sale
Brands
Women
Men
Shoes
Bags & Accessories
Beauty

There's an easier way to do this. You can use an XPath that will specify the category name you want to click. That way you don't have to loop, it will find the desired element in one search.
//span[#name='topCategory'][.='Beauty']
I'm assuming you will be reusing this code. In cases like this, I would create a function that takes a string parameter which would be the category name that you want to click. You feed that parameter into the XPath above and you can then click any category on the page.
I tested this and it's working.

Error while using webscraping with selenium

I'm scraping reviews from the Google Play homepage.
I come out well and stop on the way.
I get the following error:

I'm not an expert, but I believe that if an element has the hidden HTML attribute, then this exception will appear. I had the same issue with a drop down menu in a site once, I had to use the scroll event in Selenium to make the element visible.
