Unable to click on Button using Selenium Python












-2















I'm trying to click on this button to go to the next page, but for some reason, I'm unable to. I tried xpath, css, and class selectors as well as the data-trekkie-id attribute, but nothing I have tried worked. Any help? Code below:



<div class="step__footer" data-step-footer="">
<button name="button" type="submit" class="step__footer__continue-btn btn " data-trekkie-id="continue_to_shipping_method_button" aria-busy="false">
<span class="btn__content">
Continue to shipping method
</span>
</button>
</div>

    That isn't code; that's html, and it's only half of the equation. Show us the code.

As per the HTML to invoke click() method on the button with text as Continue to shipping method you need to induce WebDriverWait and you can use either of the following solutions:





  • Using CSS_SELECTOR:



    WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "button.step__footer__continue-btn.btn[data-trekkie-id='continue_to_shipping_method_button']>span.btn__content"))).click()



  • Using XPATH:



    WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//button[@class='step__footer__continue-btn btn' and @data-trekkie-id='continue_to_shipping_method_button']/span[@class='btn__content']"))).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

    This should work:



    driver.find_element_by_xpath("//*[contains(local-name(), 'button') and contains(@class, 'step__footer__continue-btn')]").click()
