I have script on selenium 3 and it works fine:
from selenium import webdriver
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
driver = webdriver.Chrome(ChromeDriverManager().install())
driver.get('https://ya.ru/')
driver.find_element_by_name('text').send_keys('some text')
driver.find_element_by_class_name('search2__button').click()
Now i reworked it for selenium 4, but now browser closing on its own when code ends:
from selenium import webdriver
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
s = Service(ChromeDriverManager().install())
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=s)
driver.maximize_window()
driver.get('https://ya.ru/')
driver.find_element(By.NAME, 'text').send_keys('some text')
driver.find_element(By.CLASS_NAME, 'search2__button').click()
I want to keep browser open.
I found this answer here.
You need to set the "detach" option to True when starting chromedriver:
from selenium.webdriver import ChromeOptions, Chrome
opts = ChromeOptions()
opts.add_experimental_option("detach", True)
driver = Chrome(chrome_options=opts)
One simple way would be to add a dumpy input() at the end of the code.
on_hold = input("Enter anything on the console to exit.")
Can you try this code out, it didn't auto close for me. Don't forget to change the path to the location of the chromedriver.
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
ser = Service("path/to/chromedriver.exe")
op = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
driver=webdriver.Chrome(service=ser,options=op)
driver.maximize_window()
driver.get('https://ya.ru/')
driver.find_element(By.NAME, 'text').send_keys('some text')
driver.find_element(By.CLASS_NAME, 'search2__button').click()

Help me pls,who faced such problem? There is a solution?
The browser starts and after a couple of seconds it closes, although I did not give the command to close. What's wrong?
Try using the detach option when initializing the chromedriver. As following:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
chrome_options = Options()
chrome_options.add_experimental_option("detach", True)
chrome_options.add_argument("start-maximized")
s = Service(ChromeDriverManager().install())
driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=chrome_options, service=s)
I try to select the value "Ukrainian Division" in the dropdown box of the following site:
https://www.cyberarena.live/schedule-efootball
with the following code:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import Select
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
import time
if __name__ == '__main__':
WAIT = 3
options = Options()
options.add_experimental_option ('excludeSwitches', ['enable-logging'])
options.add_argument("start-maximized")
options.add_argument('window-size=1920x1080')
options.add_argument('--no-sandbox')
options.add_argument('--disable-gpu')
srv=Service(ChromeDriverManager().install())
driver = webdriver.Chrome (service=srv, options=options)
link = f"https://www.cyberarena.live/schedule-efootball"
driver.get (link)
time.sleep(WAIT)
select = Select(driver.find_elements(By.XPATH,"//select")[1])
select.select_by_visible_text('Ukrainian Division')
# select.select_by_value("1")
input("Press!")
driver.quit()
But unfortunately, nothing happens - the options are not selected with this code.
I also tried it with select_by_value with this line
select.select_by_value("1")
instead of
select.select_by_visible_text('Ukrainian Division')
but this doesn´t work either.
How can I select this option from the dropdown box?
I tried ypur code and I also could not use Selenium Select object there. I don't know why. But we still can do that directly, with regular Selenium commands.
The following code is working:
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(service=webdriver_service, options=options)
url = 'https://www.cyberarena.live/schedule-efootball'
driver.get(url)
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 20)
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//select[contains(.,'Division')]"))).click()
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//div[contains(text(),'Ukrainian')]"))).click()
The result is:
I was working on a web scraping project with Selenium and was trying to scrape news from the site https://www.businesstimes.com.sg/government-economy.
But whenever I open the site with the selenium automated chrome window, one ad comes up in a popup which I want to close.
import selenium
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as LM

from selenium.webdriver.common.desired_capabilities import DesiredCapabilities
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import Select
import pandas as pd

options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
"""options.add_argument("enable-automation")
options.add_argument("--headless")"""
lists = ['disable-popup-blocking']
caps = DesiredCapabilities().CHROME
caps["pageLoadStrategy"] = "normal"
options.add_argument("--window-size=1920,1080")
options.add_argument("--disable-extensions")
options.add_argument("--disable-notifications")
options.add_argument("--disable-Advertisement")
options.add_argument("--disable-popup-blocking")
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path= r"E:\chromedriver\chromedriver.exe", options=options, desired_capabilities=caps) #paste your own choromedriver path
driver.get('https://www.businesstimes.com.sg/government-economy')
I tried two methods, one was by the xpath method and one by the CSS selector method, but both failed.
#1st method
driver.find_element(By.CSS_SELECTOR, 'button[data-id="pclose-btn"]').click()
#2nd method
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//div[#class='bz-el bz-pclose-btn knd-BUTTON']").click()
Please help me with this. Thank you!
Element you trying to access is inside nested iframe.
This should work:
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(service=webdriver_service, options=options)
url = 'https://www.businesstimes.com.sg/government-economy'
driver.get(url)
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 20)
wait.until(EC.frame_to_be_available_and_switch_to_it((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "iframe[id*='prestitial']")))
wait.until(EC.frame_to_be_available_and_switch_to_it((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "iframe")))
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "button[data-id='pclose-btn']"))).click()
I'm trying to get a screen shot from of a website from an url
however how can I accept the cookies before the screen shot ?
If you have any idea or clue I will appreciate.
Here is a following picture example of cookies :
Here is my code:
import time
from selenium import webdriver
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
start = time.time()
browser = webdriver.Chrome(ChromeDriverManager().install())
browser.get("https://candidat.pole-emploi.fr/offres/recherche/detail/136LNXS/")
browser.save_screenshot('screenshot1.png')
browser.quit()
end = time.time()
print("tempo =","\t",end - start)
You have to click on accept-button to accept cookie
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
import time
# selenium 4
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
#from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument("start-maximized")
options.add_argument("--no-sandbox")
options.add_argument("--disable-gpu")
options.add_argument("--disable-extensions")
#chrome to stay open
options.add_experimental_option("detach", True)
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=Service(ChromeDriverManager().install()),options=options)
driver.get('https://candidat.pole-emploi.fr/offres/recherche/detail/136LNXS')
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.XPATH, '//*[#id="footer_tc_privacy_button_2"]'))).click()
The problem is that as the browser window open the Facebook page I expect it to click on the Create New Account .
The XPATH for Create New Account that I used is
//a[text()='Create New Account']
but it open's facebook.com then suddenly closes although I have other scripts working properly.
The complete Code :
from selenium import webdriver
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.select import Select
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait as Wait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
driver = webdriver.Chrome(ChromeDriverManager().install())
driver.maximize_window()
driver.get("https://facebook.com")
link_locator = '//a[text()="Create New Account"]'
create_account = Wait(driver, 5).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, link_locator))).click()
Browser has been closed immediately, coz there was just command click, driver made it and due to nothing next, closed the driver.
Try to add time.sleep(10) at the end, and you will see that signup pop appeared:
from selenium import webdriver
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.select import Select
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait as Wait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
import time
driver = webdriver.Chrome(ChromeDriverManager().install())
driver.maximize_window()
driver.get("https://facebook.com")
link_locator = '//a[text()="Create New Account"]'
create_account = Wait(driver, 5).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, link_locator))).click()
time.sleep(10)
driver.quit()
