I have this so far

First_prompt = driver.find_element(By.CSS_SELECTOR,"#promptAnchor #prompt #promptContent")

HTML:

For whatever reason I can't add "#promptContentChangeLanguage" into First Prompt it gives me an error saying it can't find the value. I don't know what to do here. I have also tried getting the ID directly "langSelect-EN" but the same error occurs. When I just run the code I have everything is fine, but I can't access what I'm trying to. An image is attached to show you what I'm trying to get to. Any help would be greatly apricated. Thank you.

I'm expecting to get the element "langSelect-EN" and click on it with selenium.

I used the SeleniumBase Recorder to generate a script for that:

pip install seleniumbase, then run with python or pytest:

from seleniumbase import BaseCase
BaseCase.main(__name__, __file__)

class RecorderTest(BaseCase):
    def test_recording(self):
        self.open("https://orteil.dashnet.org/cookieclicker/")
        self.click("a#changeLanguage")
        self.click("div#langSelect-EN")

It is working for me.

To click on the element with text as English you need to induce WebDriverWait for the element_to_be_clickable() and you can use either of the following locator strategies:

• Using CSS_SELECTOR:

  driver.get('https://orteil.dashnet.org/cookieclicker/')
  WebDriverWait(driver, 5).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "a.cc_btn.cc_btn_accept_all"))).click()
  WebDriverWait(driver, 5).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "div.langSelectButton.title#langSelect-EN"))).click()
  

• Using XPATH:

  driver.get('https://orteil.dashnet.org/cookieclicker/')
  WebDriverWait(driver, 5).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//a[@class='cc_btn cc_btn_accept_all']"))).click()
  WebDriverWait(driver, 5).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//div[@class='langSelectButton title' and @id='langSelect-EN']"))).click()
  

• Note: You have to add the following imports :

  from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
  from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
  from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
