Problem with sellenium webdriver on gipfy.com Can not find a elements only one element

Time:05-01

Hi I do not know why but always if I am using selenium it is not working now I have a problem with a giphy.com here is my code

tag = "pixelart"
driver.get(f"https://giphy.com/search/{tag}")
time.sleep(2)
gifs = driver.find_elements(By.XPATH,"/html/body/div[4]/div[1]/div/div[6]/div[2]/div[1]")
print(gifs)
for gif in gifs:
    href = gif.get_attribute("href")
    print(f"Test : {href})

output should be a URL in href:

CodePudding user response:

try this

elems = driver.find_elements_by_xpath(
          "//div[@]//child::div//child::a"
       )

urls = [url for url in elems.get_attrivute("href")

you can also try WebDriverWait to wait until element is loaded instead use time.sleep function.

CodePudding user response:

The locator strategy you have used:

/html/body/div[4]/div[1]/div/div[6]/div[2]/div[1]

identifies only one element within the HTML DOM, hence you see only a single element.

To extract the value of the href attributes you have to induce WebDriverWait for visibility_of_all_elements_located() and you can use either of the following locator strategies:

  • Using XPATH:

    driver.get("https://giphy.com/search/pixelart")
    WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//span[text()='Agree and close']"))).click()
    print([my_elem.get_attribute("href") for my_elem in WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.visibility_of_all_elements_located((By.XPATH, "//picture//ancestor::a[1][@href]")))])
