I'm trying to click buttons on amazon with selenium (python) but it won't work. It says the elements don't exist. I tried to google it but only found outdated solutions. I've tried Xpaths,ID,full XPATH on pretty much all input fields with no success. I've used selenium before and it works flawlessly but on amazon in particular it can't find the elements. For example the place order button (Je bestelling plaatsen in my language) can't be found nor clicked.
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, '//*[#id="turbo-checkout-pyo-button"]/span/input')
driver.find_element(By.ID, 'turbo-checkout-pyo-button')
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, '/html/body/div[4]/div[1]/div/div/div/div[2]/div/form/div/span/span/span/input')
How do I know which elements are clickable and direct to the intended page? If there is a way to tell please let me know. Thanks in advance
I'm not a selenium master but you can use the find_element_by_xpath function that returns an element object that can be clicked so:
element = driver.find_element_by_xpath('/html/body/div[4]/div[1]/div/div/div/div[2]/div/form/div/span/span/span/input')
element.click()
The problem was that the button was located in an iframe. Switching to the iframe and then pressing the button does the job. Found out through this question
driver.switch_to.frame("turbo-checkout-iframe")
directButton = driver.find_element(By.CSS_SELECTOR, '#turbo-checkout-pyo-button')
directButton.click()

I am trying to click a login button after filling out all the information for the website. So far I have been able to fill in spaces using driver.find_element("id","username").send_keys("username") when I use driver.find_element_id("username").send_keys("username") it wont work.
The login button elements are class=radius and type=sumbit also i class="fa fa-2x fa-sign-in"
(I would just link the site but I dont know if that would be against TOS)
So far I have used the following commands
element = driver.find_element_by_link_text("Login")
element.click()
driver.find_element_by_xpath(//*[#id="login"]/button.click() but xpath gives an "unresolved reference"
I am using IDE PyCharm Build #PC-222.4167.33 on Windows
Try this code:
driver.find_element(By.ID, "username").send_keys("<enter the username>")
driver.find_element(By.ID, "password").send_keys("<enter the password>")
time.sleep(1)
driver.find_element(By.CSS_SELECTOR, ".radius").click()
time.sleep(2)
driver.find_element(By.CSS_SELECTOR, ".button.secondary.radius").click()
time.sleep(2)
I have added 'time.sleep()' just to show you it is working correctly, avoid using it in your real-time projects.
Looks like the same problem I solve here Selenium, selecting from dropdown
You should localize the element with XPath or CSS selector, i recommend you try with CSS selector, if don't work try with xpath .
I want to make a automatic google login with selenium but i cannot find the elements, the buttoenter image description heren "Next", because the class
is modified each time when we come to start a browser with selenium, or when we reset the login page and does not have Id, but the button is in a div that includes just this button,
I would like someone to help me find a solution to find how I can use this button in order to click it to skip the page where you have to put your email address to skip to the password
i would like to use css selector
(Google Chrome the browser I use)
I code with Selenium 4.2.0 on Linux Unbuntu
driver.find_element(By.CSS_SELECTOR, 'button[class="VfPpkd-LgbsSe VfPpkd-LgbsSe-OWXEXe-k8QpJ VfPpkd-LgbsSe-OWXEXe-dgl2Hf nCP5yc AjY5Oe DuMIQc LQeN7 qIypjc TrZEUc lw1w4b"]').click()
That will click the 'Next' button on Google login. Good luck getting any further though. Google seems to block logging in on Chromium.
You can either use jsname as an alternative for finding the element
I found a similar question here How can I inspect element in to div with jsname?
I think the person is doing pretty same thing
Hope this helps :)
I am having some issues with Selenium not clicking the pop-up privacy button on https://www.transfermarkt.com/
Here is my code so far:
from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.get('https://www.transfermarkt.com/')
accept_button = driver.find_element_by_xpath('/html/body/div/div[2]/div[3]/div[2]/button')
accept_button.click()
It comes up saying:
NoSuchElementException: Message: no such element: Unable to locate element: {"method":"xpath","selector":"/html/body/div/div[2]/div[3]/div[2]/button"}
Anyone have any thoughts?
I believe the issue is that the element you are trying to click is inside an iframe. In order to click that element you'll have to first switch to that frame. I noticed the iframe has title="SP Consent Message" so I'll use a CSS Selector to identify it based on that. Your code with the added line:
from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.get('https://www.transfermarkt.com/')
driver.switch_to.frame(driver.find_element_by_css_selector('iframe[title="SP Consent Message"]'))
accept_button = driver.find_element_by_xpath('/html/body/div/div[2]/div[3]/div[2]/button')
accept_button.click()
Note that you may have to switch back to the default frame to continue your test, I'm not 100% sure as that iframe has gone away.
Also it seems like some folks don't get that popup when the hit the website, not sure why, may be something you want to look in to to determine how you want to test this.
Like #Prophet says you should improve the xpath for the button (again it seems to have a unique title so I would use CSS Selector 'button[title="ACCEPT ALL"]'), but this works for me to click it.
There are 2 issues here:
You need to add wait / delay before accept_button = driver.find_element_by_xpath('/html/body/div/div[2]/div[3]/div[2]/button') to let the page load
It's very, very bad practice to use absolute XPaths. You have to define an unique, short and clear related XPath expression.
Additionally, I see no pop-up privacy button when I open that page. So, maybe that element is indeed not there.
I'm trying to do a simple Python Selenium automation where the script will click a link which opens a dialog box on top of the page (Instagram profile).
The said dialog box will display the list of followers but unfortunately the UL that contains the list will only display the first 12 followers (or LI). It is powered by AJAX to "load more" followers.
Anyway, to simulate loading more followers, i tried this code:
driver.find_element_by_xpath('/html/body/div[3]/div/div[2]/ul').send_keys(Keys.END)
or
driver.find_element_by_tag_name('body').send_keys(Keys.END)
unfortunately, it doesn't work. I was wondering if there is a correct way to do this (scrolling down focused on the active div or any page element)?
Image below is provided to show the html structure of the said page.
Appreciate your help on this, thank you very much!
Can you try something like this?. This will scroll to the div element that you have mentioned.
Python Code
element = driver.find_element_by_xpath("xpath_of_div_element")
driver.execute_script("arguments[0].scrollIntoView(true);", element);
Java sample:
WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.id("id_of_div_element"));
((JavascriptExecutor) driver).executeScript("arguments[0].scrollIntoView(true);", element);
Use this
liElement = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//div[#role='dialog']//ul//li[text()='required_li_element_visible_text']")
driver.execute_script("arguments[0].scrollIntoView(true);", liElement);
I am using Selenium WebDriver to do automated testing of a website. I have been successful in clicking through numerous menus and links to a point.
At one point the website I am working with generates links that look like this:
<U onclick="HourglassSubmitItem(document.all('PageName').value, '00000001Responsibility Code')">Responsibility Code</U>
I am trying to use the .click functionality of the webdriver to click this link with no success.
Using this:
page.find_element_by_xpath("//u[contains(text(),'Responsibility Code')]")
successfully finds the U tag above. but when I add .click() to the end of this xpath, the click is not performed. But it also does not generate an error. So, my question is can Selenium be used to simulate clicks on an HTML tag that is NOT an anchor () tag? If so, how?
I will also say that I do not have control over the page I am working with, so changing the to is not possible.
I would appreciate any guidance the Community could provide.
Thank You for you help,
Chris
Sometimes using JavaScript could solve the "clicking" issue:
element = page.find_element_by_xpath("//u[contains(text(),'Responsibility Code')]")
page.execute_script('arguments[0].click();', element)
You can prefer JavaScript in this case.
WebElment element = page.find_element_by_xpath("//u[contains(text(),'Responsibility Code')]")
JavaScriptExecutor executor = (JavaScriptExecutor)driver;
executor.ExecuteScript("arguments[0].click();", element);
