[FIXED] Use selenium for find element

Issue

I would like to take the word "buy"

browser.find_element_by_xpath("//*[@id='js-commentaire']")

print(commentaire)

and i also did

browser.find_element_by_id("js-commentaire")

print(commentaire)

This the source code

"div class="col-6 form-control form-control-sm overflow-auto" id="js-commentaire"> buy</div"

Solution

You will need following libs:

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

And then try this:

my_element = WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "//input[@id='js-commentaire']")))
print(my_element.text)

Or

my_element = WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "//input[@id='js-commentaire']")))
print(my_element.get_attribute('textContent'))
