I have 1 question that I can't clicking on the button with javascript. I use

driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//li[@class='login']/a")

but it doesn't work at all. it seems like javascripts.

Plz help me to clicking on the login button.

This might be more helpful if you can provide more of the source code or maybe a link to the site?

But from what I see. Did you actually click?

driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//li[@class='login']/a").click()

CodePudding user response：

You need to wait for the element to be clickable (remember to add proper imports), and here is a working code:

from selenium import webdriver
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

driver = webdriver.Chrome(ChromeDriverManager().install())
driver.get("https://www.oliveyoung.co.kr")
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//li[@class='login']/a"))).click()
input()
driver.close()

Please check in the dev tools (Google chrome) if we have unique entry in HTML DOM or not.

xpath that you should check :

//li[@class='login']//a

Steps to check:

Press F12 in Chrome -> go to element section -> do a CTRL F -> then paste the xpath and see, if your desired element is getting highlighted with 1/1 matching node.

If we have 1/1 matching node, Please make sure that :

1. This div is not under an iframe.
2. This div is not under a shadow-root.
3. You should not be on new tab/windows launched by selenium.

if it matches the desired element, then in Selenium there are 4 ways to click on it.

Code trial 1 :

time.sleep(5)
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//li[@class='login']//a").click()

Code trial 2 :

WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//li[@class='login']//a"))).click()

Code trial 3 :

time.sleep(5)
button = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//li[@class='login']//a")
driver.execute_script("arguments[0].click();", button)

Code trial 4 :

time.sleep(5)
button = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//li[@class='login']//a")
ActionChains(driver).move_to_element(button).click().perform()
