So i'm trying to automate this simple thing, where i want to click on a image.
Here is HTML:
<div class="guild-inner" draggable="false" style="border-radius: 15px;">
<a draggable="false" class="avatar-small" href="/channels/223259649967652887/381675339702599690" style="background-image: url("https://cdn.discordapp.com/icons/223259649967652887/2be8d9ec8759056fabe8caa306c632c8.png");">
</a>
</div>
Here is my code:
def find_tc():
driver.find_element_by_xpath('//a[#href="/channels/223259649967652887/381675339702599690"]').click()
wait(5)
Here is the error:
selenium.common.exceptions.NoSuchElementException: Message: no such element: Unable to locate element: {"method":"xpath","selector":"//a[href="/channels/223259649967652887/381675339702599690"]"}
I have to refer this by href because that is the only thing that is unique. All the images are dynamically defined so i also can't refer to the image by on which number it is.Thanks in advance! (new to selenium)
Ok, so the problem is that i was trying to find the element when the page is not completely loaded. So i had to put like one minute sleep time before initiating the search for the element..because the java script is still being loaded in the background. Still is there any was to decide if the page has been completely loaded including java script instead of putting a random sleep time? happy to learn!

On the website I am trying to fill in some fields on, there is a checkbox that I need to click to add the check mark in it:
<div class="rc-anchor-content"><div class="rc-inline-block"><div class="rc-anchor-center-container"><div class="rc-anchor-center-item rc-anchor-checkbox-holder"><span class="recaptcha-checkbox goog-inline-block recaptcha-checkbox-unchecked rc-anchor-checkbox recaptcha-checkbox-expired" role="checkbox" aria-checked="false" id="recaptcha-anchor" dir="ltr" aria-labelledby="recaptcha-anchor-label" aria-disabled="false" tabindex="0"><div class="recaptcha-checkbox-border" role="presentation" style=""></div><div class="recaptcha-checkbox-borderAnimation" role="presentation" style=""></div><div class="recaptcha-checkbox-spinner" role="presentation" style="transform: rotate(180deg);"></div><div class="recaptcha-checkbox-spinnerAnimation" role="presentation" style=""></div><div class="recaptcha-checkbox-checkmark" role="presentation"></div></span></div></div></div><div class="rc-inline-block"><div class="rc-anchor-center-container"><label class="rc-anchor-center-item rc-anchor-checkbox-label" aria-hidden="true" role="presentation" id="recaptcha-anchor-label"><span aria-live="polite" aria-labelledby="recaptcha-accessible-status"></span>I'm not a robot</label></div></div></div>
Using Selenium in VBA, I tried the following
.FindElementByCss("div.recaptcha-checkbox-border").Click
And also I tried
.FindElementByCss("span.recaptcha-checkbox").Click
But I got an error at this line.
Here's the link of the website to see the whole HTML
https://www.moj.gov.kw/AR/E-Gov/Pages/eServices01.aspx
To click() on the element, as the desired element is within an <iframe> so you have to:
Induce a waiter and switch to the desired frame.
Induce a waiter for the desired element to be clickable.
You can use the following solution:
.SwitchToFrame.FindElementByXPath("//iframe[contains(#src, 'recaptcha') and not(#title='recaptcha challenge')]", timeout:=10000)
.FindElementByCss("div.recaptcha-checkbox-checkmark").Click

I am trying to find an element using "find_element_by_xpath" but getting error which says "Unable to locate element".
I have also tried giving implicit wait but still not able to locate the element.
The HTML file looks like:
<div class="actions">
<input type="submit" value="Save" data-action="save">
</div>
<input type="hidden" name=actionId>
I had tried below line of code:
driver.implicitly_wait(10)
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[#type='submit']")
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//class[#name='
actions']/input[#type='submit']"
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//form[#id='form-
submit']/input[#type='submit']")
All the above tries show the error "No such element: Unable to locate element"
I had tried "execute_script" for handling hidden element,
element = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[#type='submit']")
driver.execute_script("arguments[0].click();", element)
This is not giving any error but I am not sure if it is clicking on the correct button as a new webpage is opening with a message "The page you are trying could not be reached".
Your xpath seems to be fine, please check if the element is located inside an iframe and if yes, then first switch to the iframe and then you can operate on the element.
To switch to the iframe you can use: driver.switch_to_frame(driver.find_element_by_tag_name('iframe')) and then you can operate on the element and for switching back to the default content, you can use driver.switch_to_default_content()
I'm trying to build a data scraper with Selenium Python that searches a webpage. The search page contains a dojoComboBox that allows you to select a name from a dropdown list.
Here is the HTML for the dojoComboBox:
<span _="whitespace and CR's between tags adds in FF" class="dojoComboBoxOuter dj_khtml dj_safari dropSel" style="null">
<input style="display:none" tabindex="-1" name="txtCaseName" value="" dojoattachpoint="comboBoxValue">
<input style="display:none" tabindex="-1" name="txtCaseName_selected" value="" dojoattachpoint="comboBoxSelectionValue">
<input type="text" autocomplete="off" class="dojoComboBox dropSel" dojoattachevent="key:_handleKeyEvents; keyUp: onKeyUp; compositionEnd; onResize;" dojoattachpoint="textInputNode" style="null">
<img hspace="0" vspace="0" class="dojoComboBox dropSel" dojoattachpoint="downArrowNode" dojoattachevent="onMouseUp: handleArrowClick; onResize;" src="dojo/src/widget/templates/images/combo_box_arrow.png" style="width: 13px; height: 13px;">
</span>
I can get the DojoComboBox scroll menu to open with the following code:
dropdown = browser.find_element_by_css_selector("img.dojoComboBox")
dropdown.click()
However, I can't seem to find a way to actually select one of the values.
Update:
The HTML I posted above is from the page I pull up when I inspect elements (the HTML under the 'Elements' tab of Chrome DevTools). I've been looking at some other files that I found in the 'Source' tab, and I found some code in a page called main.aspx?e=nauqov2blnhlnh45eseztnao that looks also related to the DojoComboBox:
<select name="txtCaseName" id="txtCaseName" class="dropSel"dojotype="ComboBox"
setSelectedValue="dojo.byId('txtCaseName1').value=arguments[0]"
autocomplete="true" dataurl="CaseCode.aspx?match=%{searchString}&lang=e"
mode="remote" maxlistlength="7">
</select>
However, neither of these seem to encode options that I can select. I thought that perhaps the options would be stored in the url labeled 'dataurl' in the piece of HTML above, but when I copy that link into my address bar, it doesn't take me to a valid webpage. From what I've found in the Dojo documentation, it seems like the options should be stored in a separate file/database, but I can't find any suggestions about how to access that file.
Any suggestions? (Thanks!)
you will have to store every options in a list. Then based on some conditions such as name of option, you can choose it and click on it.
all_options = browser.find_elements_by_css_selector("your locator for every options")
for options in all_options:
if "option_name" in options.text.strip():
options.click()
I am trying to automate a process using Python and selenium webdriver.
I am able to login successfully and navigating to the page where I want to post something but for some reason the xpath is not recognized by the system.
It gives the below error:
NoSuchElementException: Unable to locate element: //*[#id="widecol"]/div/form/p[1]/input
Here is my code:
from selenium import webdriver
mydriver = webdriver.Firefox()
mydriver.get("https://www.phishtank.com/")
mydriver.maximize_window()
mydriver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[#id="username"]').send_keys("myusername")
mydriver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[#id="password"]').send_keys("mypassword")
mydriver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[#id="header"]/div[2]/form/input[3]').click()
mydriver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[#id="nav"]/ul/li[2]/a').click()
mydriver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[#id="widecol"]/div/form/p[1]/input').send_keys("sample text testing to fill form")
This is my HTML code
<div id="widecol">
<div class="padded">
<form method="POST">
<h2>Add A Phish</h2>
<ol>
<li>Visit our <b>What is phishing?</b> page to confirm that the suspected phish meets all of the criteria.</li>
<li>Add a phish using the form below, or even better, submit a phish directly via email.</li>
</ol>
<h3>Phish URL:</h3>
<p>
<input type="text" name="phish_url" style="width:90%;" value="" /><br />
<span class="small">Copy and paste the URL of the phishing website.</span>
</p>
<h3>What is the organization referenced in the email?</h3>
<p class="slim">
<select name="phish_target">
which gives me the following error:
NoSuchElementException: Unable to locate element: //*[#id="widecol"]/div/form/p[1]/input
Here is the HTML code:
<input type="text" name="phish_url" style="width:90%;" value=""> outer HTML code
And this is my XPath:
//*[#id="widecol"]/div/form/p[1]/input - Xpath
Please let me know where to look, thank you.
You need to induce WebDriverWait for the element to be clickable and you can use the following line of code :
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//input[#name='phish_url' and #type='text']"))).send_keys("sample text testing to fill form")
Without the full HTML, we can't tell if the XPath is correct or no.
Can you please try and include more outer Html code?
You can try and wait after clicking on that last URL, maybe the element wasn't loaded yet.
You can also check if the input is in an iframe, that might be causing the problem.
Could you try the following instead?
//*[#id='widecol']//input[#name='phish_url']
Should work for that input. Just for trial/error sake, try a small wait before doing this.
The new Selenium version doesn't allow it.
Try the below code
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
And then Change the 'find_element_by_xpath statements' to
mydriver.find_element(By.XPATH,'//[#id="username"]').send_keys("myusername")

manually clicking on tab(anchor tag) its displaying drop down menu(unordered list) with watir element is locating but drop down menu is not displaying

Tried the following line of code to click on the tab
$ff.div(:id,"NetworkAnalysisTabPanel").div(:index,1).div(:index,1).ul(:index,1).li(:index,1).link(:index,2).fire_event("onClick")
I am using watir 1.6.6 version
Firstly since your HTML sample that you provided does not include the element you are using in the command you attmepted, it's hard to know where that might be going wrong. Secondly since the code you provided does have a div with a unique ID present, why not start there instead of with an outer container.
I think the problem is that you are using
.fire_event("onCLick")
However the code is monitoring for an event named "onclick" (all lower case)
Try using
.fire_event("onclick")
or if you have not already, perhaps just
.click
and see if that works for you
Also, I'd seriously recommend you upgrade to a more current version of Watir.. 1.6.6 is pretty behind the times.
Update: that html code is starting to look very familiar to me, if this is the same basic control from the other two questions you've posted so far, then try firing the 'onmousedown' event against the element that invokes the menu and see if that works
