Selenium - How to select item from div drop down list?-CodePudding

I am trying to select the second option from the div drop down via python/selenium. The code below is what I have so far. The first line opens the drop down and works. The second line attempts to select the 2 option and click it. I have tried "2", "22", and "Option-22" but none seem to work.

Sample Python Selenium Code

#opens drop down
browser.find_element(By.XPATH,".//*[@id='Account']").click()

#selects item from dropdown
browser.find_element(By.XPATH,".//*[@id='Account']/option[22]").click()

Error Message:

Message: invalid selector: Unable to locate an element with the xpath expression .//*[@id='Account']/option[22] because of the following error:
SyntaxError: Failed to execute 'evaluate' on 'Document': The string './/*[@id='Account']/option[22]' is not a valid XPath expression.

Sample HTML Code:

<div id="Account" >
                                    <select>
                                                <option selected="" value="11">Option-11</option>
                                                <option value="22">Option-22</option>
                                                <option value="33">Option-33</option>
                                    </select>

                </div>

CodePudding user response：

The XPath you want is:

"//*[@id='Account']//option[@value='22']"

Or you can use the following CSS Selector:

'#Account option[value="22"]'

Or with SeleniumBase, you can do the full select option in one line:

self.select_option_by_text("#Account select", "Option-22")

(Full disclosure: I maintain SeleniumBase)
