I have the web result with the html tags as below, I need to loop each value and get the results from the table
<div class = "divList">
<select class="form selectList">
<option value="3710">Thu, 04 Nov 2021</option>
<option value="3709">Mon, 01 Nov 2021</option>
<option value="3708">Mon, 01 Nov 2021</option>
....
</select>
</div>
<iframe name="sif1" sandbox="allow-forms allow-modals allow-scripts" frameborder="0"></iframe>
dropdownlist = driver.find_element_by_class_name('divList')
valueslist = (dropdownlist.text).splitlines()
print(valueslist)
sel = Select(driver.find_element_by_xpath("//select[@class='form selectList']"))
for value in valueslist:
print(value)
sel.select_by_visible_text(value)
print('Processing - ', value)
time.sleep(3)
Getting the below error while changing the value after 2 iteration

selenium.common.exceptions.StaleElementReferenceException: Message: stale element reference: element is not attached to the page document
CodePudding user response:
try this:
dropdownlist = driver.find_element_by_class_name('divList')
valueslist = (dropdownlist.text).splitlines()
print(valueslist)
sel = Select(driver.find_element_by_xpath("//select[@class='form selectList']"))
for value in valueslist:
sel = Select(driver.find_element_by_xpath("//select[@class='form selectList']"))
sel.select_by_visible_text(value)
print('Processing - ', value)
time.sleep(3)
you could simplify if you want by:
sel = Select(driver.find_element_by_xpath("//select[@class='form selectList']"))
nbritems = len(sel.options)
for i in range(0, nbritems):
sel = Select(driver.find_element_by_xpath("//select[@class='form selectList']"))
txt = sel.options[i].text
sel.select_by_visible_text(txt)
print('Processing - ', txt)
time.sleep(3)
selenium.common.exceptions.StaleElementReferenceException: Message: stale element reference: element is not attached to the page document
The literal meaning is about , The referenced element is out of date , No longer attached to the current page . Usually , This is because the page has been refreshed or skipped , The solution is , Reuse findElement or findElements Method to locate the element .
