I am trying to click an element in Selenium.
The site is: url = "http://jenner.com/people"
The xpath for the element is: url = //div[@class='filter offices']
Here is my code:
from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.get(url)
element = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//div[@class='filter offices']")
element.click()
When I click the element, the drop down for offices should appear. Instead, when I click the element, nothing happens. What am I doing wrong?
You are clicking on div that contains other div with event listener. You should click on div where listener ist registered. This xpath should work:
//div[@class='filter offices']/div[@class='header']
Here, I give you working script which select location.
from selenium import webdriver
import time
driver = webdriver.Chrome('./chromedriver.exe')
url="https://jenner.com/people"
try:
driver.get(url)
element = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//div[@class='filter offices']")
element.click()
time.sleep(5)
element = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[@id='search_offices_chicago']")
element.click()
time.sleep(5)
except Exception as e:
print e
driver.quit()
driver.quit()
