How to download certain columns of a table using Selenium and Python?-CodePudding

I want to get 2 columns(Symbol, Name) of a table on this website :

It seemed that each row has its class name as "nasdaq-ndx-index__row" so I tried

from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Chrome('D:\\PROGRAM\\chromedriver.exe')

url = "https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/quotes/nasdaq-ndx-index"
driver.get(url)
driver.implicitly_wait(1)

xpath = "/html/body/div[2]/div/main/div[2]/article/div[2]/div/div[3]/div[3]/div[2]/table/tbody/tr[2]"

tb = driver.find_elements(By.CLASS_NAME, "nasdaq-ndx-index__row")

but tb is just a list of

<selenium.webdriver.remote.webelement.WebElement (session="f66740af2c8b92f4c81f30e893044cdc", element="57a9c748-bbdc-4626-8e31-2cb6f7b680f4")>
<selenium.webdriver.remote.webelement.WebElement (session="f66740af2c8b92f4c81f30e893044cdc", element="b1c72b3b-9934-418a-a743-1aedf5dcd65c")>
<selenium.webdriver.remote.webelement.WebElement (session="f66740af2c8b92f4c81f30e893044cdc", element="c68764ea-d82a-42f1-8f3d-0801d9604eae")>
<selenium.webdriver.remote.webelement.WebElement (session="f66740af2c8b92f4c81f30e893044cdc", element="a2dad31a-ad7b-4b41-ba58-d6424b093b96")>

What am I missing and how could I get the 2 columns?

CodePudding user response：

If you inspect the rows themselves you can see that the first two columns are 'th' elements.

You can use this snippet to get the two first columns:

for row in tb:
    cols = row.find_elements(By.TAG_NAME, "th")
    print(cols[0].text, cols[1].text)
