Hi guys i am new on selenium i tried to search from website's textbox
There is my code:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
import time
PATH="C:\Program Files (x86)\chromedriver.exe"
s=Service(PATH)
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=s)
url='https://www.techwithtim.net/'
driver.get(url)
print(driver.title)
search=driver.find_element(by=By.NAME, value="s")
search.send_keys("test")
search.send_keys(Keys.ENTER)
time.sleep(5)
driver.close() #driver
The program is able to search, but it throws an error at the search.send_keys(Keys.ENTER) line and exits the code.
I can't give all error for you because of this website doesn't allow i don't know
so some of the error:
File "C:/Users/User/PycharmProjects/us1/selen.py", line 16, in <module>
search.send_keys(Keys.ENTER)

So I faced the same error on my desktop, turns out that this has something to do with version mismatch.
My chrome version was
Version 103.0.5060.66 (Official Build) (64-bit)
So I updated my chrome driver to version
103.0.5060.53
You can try updating your chrome and chrome driver accordingly.
If you are using Chrome version
104
, please download ChromeDriver104.0.5112.20
If you are using Chrome version
103
, please download ChromeDriver103.0.5060.53
If you are using Chrome version
102
, please download ChromeDriver102.0.5005.61
You can check your chrome version here chrome://settings/help
Once updated, the below code should work fine
import time
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
chrome_path = r"C:\Users\hpoddar\Desktop\Tools\chromedriver_win32\chromedriver.exe"
s = Service(chrome_path)
url = 'https://www.techwithtim.net/'
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=s)
driver.get(url)
time.sleep(5)
driver.maximize_window()
search=driver.find_element(by=By.CLASS_NAME, value="search-field")

You have to download chrome driver exe from below path as per installed chrome version and use the respective chrome driver. Selenium works on chromedriver.exe. You have to download the chrome driver exe and paste it in your computer and in path you have to give location of the chrome driver exe.
https://chromedriver.chromium.org/downloads
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path="C:\\chromedriver.exe")
driver.get("https://www.techwithtim.net/")
