This is the HTML of the checkbox I am trying to interact with:
<th>
<input data-control-element="Vol_Year_Selector" type="checkbox" value="2022">
<Label>2022</Label>
</th>
<th>
<input data-control-element="Vol_Year_Selector" type="checkbox" value="2021">
<Label>2021</Label>
</th>
<th>
<input data-control-element="Vol_Year_Selector" type="checkbox" value="2020">
<Label>2020</Label>
</th>
<th>
<input data-control-element="Vol_Year_Selector" type="checkbox" value="2019">
<Label>2019</Label>
</th>
<th>
<input data-control-element="Vol_Year_Selector" type="checkbox" value="2018">
<Label>2018</Label>
</th>
I need to click this checkbox, along with a few other very similar ones. This is the code I have now based on what I was able to find:
driver.find_element(By.XPATH,"//option[@value='" dl_data "']").click()
where I am iterating through the array dl_data that contains all of the year strings ["2018","2019",....] This doesn't work, as selenium is finding no such element.
Could anyone tell me what I am doing wrong here?
CodePudding user response:
You are looking for option elements, but these are input elements, therefore try:
driver.find_element(By.XPATH,"//input[@value='" dl_data "']").click()
