I'm trying to remove readonly tag from an input field by using python and selenium. Can anybody help me here?

Datepicker Image:

HTML:

<input id="startDate" name="START_DATE" type="text"  readonly="readonly">

Code I've tried :

driver.execute_script('driver.find_element_by_xpath('" //*[@id = '" 'startDate' "'] "').removeAttribute("readonly")')

CodePudding user response：

To remove the readonly attribute you need to use removeAttribute() as follows:

element = driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//input[@class='date hasDatepicker' and @id='startDate']")
driver.execute_script("arguments[0].removeAttribute('readonly')", element);
