Using Selenium to input a data in a website?-CodePudding

I hope everyone is having a wonderful day... One of my clients wanted me to create a programe that takes user's input and enters it into the websites of insurance car providers, then compares the results to find the best rate for the user.

I'd already done it for two firms, but the third was really difficult to input the texts because it was a drop down list. I entered the text, but it did not go to the next page... Please assist me, and I apologise for disturbing you!!

CodePudding user response：

You cannot use Select(element1) because element1 is not a select node/tag but a div, i.e. to be able to use Select you should have

<select role="presentation" >

instead of

<div role="presentation" >

What you have to do is

year = 2016
selection = driver.find_element_by_xpath(f'//div[contains(@class, "tt-dataset-car_year")]/child::div[contains(text(), "{year}")]')
selection.click()
