I wanted to locate the value of BNK1 using Selenium web driver by C#. my local website i found have 2 iframe. i have try to change to get my iframe to change to detail frame for me to get my value of BNK1 in the table.
I had no idea what going on with the problem that i not able locate the iframe by using XPath.
but i having error "no such element: Unable to locate element: {"method":"xpath","selector":"//iframe[#class='tabcontentiframe']"}
IWebElement detailFrame = driver.FindElement(By.XPath("//iframe[#class='tabcontentiframe']"));
driver.SwitchTo().Frame(detailFrame);
IWebElement element = driver.FindElement(By.XPath("//table/tbody/tr/td[contains(text(),'BNK1')]"));
String text = element.Text;
First, let's get sure that your page is fully loaded before trying anything, using a heavy-hand approach,
driver.Manage().Timeouts().ImplicitWait = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(10);
Second, assuming the element you want to access is inside an iframe, you first need to switch to it. Actually, you mention in comment that you have two nested iframes,
// Let's switch to the parent frame
IWebElement tabcontentiframe = driver.FindElement(By.XPath("//iframe[#class='tabcontentiframe']"));
driver.SwitchTo().Frame(tabcontentiframe);
// Let's switch to the child frame
IWebElement iframeHome = driver.FindElement(By.XPath("//iframe[#id='iframeHome']"));
driver.SwitchTo().Frame(iframeHome);
Now, you can do
IWebElement element = driver.FindElement(By.XPath("//table/tbody/tr/td[contains(text(),'BNK1')]"));
// or By.XPath("//td[contains(text(),'BNK1')]")
// or By.XPath("//td[text()='BNK1']")
When you are done, you may want to switch back to the main frame,
driver.SwitchTo().DefaultContent();
You can find the element by using the relative xpath:
IWebElement element = driver.FindElement(By.XPath("//td[text()='BNK1']"));

there is an element on the bottom most on the page, here is how I see the tag,
I wrote the script for locating the element like below
IWebElement AddNewContentButton = (IWebElement)_Wait.Until(d => d.FindElement(By.Id(addnewcontetnId)));
AddNewContentButton.Click();
Actions actions = new Actions(Driver);
IWebElement AddNewContentButton = (IWebElement)_Wait.Until(d => d.FindElement(By.Id(addnewcontetnId)));
actions.KeyDown(Keys.End);
actions.MoveToElement(AddNewContentButton);
AddNewContentButton.Click();
both of the above are not locating the element
also on the same page i taugh since the element is on the bottom most of the page the scrolling will help, and wrote the below mentioned
JavaScriptExecutor js = Driver as JavaScriptExecutor;
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(5000);
js.ExecuteScript("window.scrollBy(0,document.body.scrollHeight)");
IJavaScriptExecutor js = Driver as IJavaScriptExecutor;
js.ExecuteScript("window.scrollBy(0,350)", "");
Driver.FindElement(By.CssSelector("body")).SendKeys(Keys.End);
none of the above 3 are working
Can someone throw lights on how to locate the element and how to scroll down?
hi. I want to click on this placeholder inside div, how can I do it, I tried Xpath but it doesnt work.
It seems your input field is inside an iframe. You have to switch to iframe first and then try to sendkeys.
IWebElement iframeElement= driver.FindElement(By.Name("top"));
driver.SwitchTo().Frame(iframeElement);
IWebElement element = driver.FindElement(By.Id("username"));
element.SendKeys("text");
Note: As in question there is no detail about iframe iframeElement so I took this name from input element. You can change locator if it is not correct
I am trying to find iframe within iframe using Selenium WebDriver. I have a scenario where a popup opens in a website which itself is an iframe and this in turn contains 4 richedit textboxes which are nothing but iframes. Here is how i am trying to do it. If i check the foreach loop, i get 4 iframes correctly which suggests that i am reaching right elements. What can be the reason for failure for not able to get correct tags inside iframe? Here is my code.
ReadOnlyCollection<IWebElement> topItem = driver.FindElements(By.XPath("//iframe[#src='Edit.aspx']"));
Utility.Instance.WaitUntilFrameLoaded(topItem[0]);
Thread.Sleep(2000);
ReadOnlyCollection<IWebElement> elements = Utility.Instance.WaitUnitElementsAppearsByXPath("//div[#id='ctlPanel']//table/tbody/tr[2]//iframe[#src='javascript:true;']");
Thread.Sleep(1000);
foreach(IWebElement eleFrame in elements)
{
Utility.Instance.WaitUntilFrameLoaded(eleFrame);
IWebElement body = driver.FindElement(By.TagName("body"));
body.Click();
driver.SwitchTo().DefaultContent();
Utility.Instance.WaitUntilFrameLoaded(topItem[0]);
}
However i always get the message that the element with tag name body not found. If i debug, i see html which contains a body tag. I am not sure why it does not provide me back with the element.
I want to click at a point inside an iframe using Actions class of Selenium. But the code I'm trying is not clicking. Below is the code:
Actions action = new Actions(driver);
action.MoveByOffset(x-coordinate, y-coordinate).Click().Perform();
I also tried passing the driver like:
Actions action=new Actions(driver.SwitchTo().Frame(0));
But it was giving error and I couldn't find any other way to pass the driver with a frame selected.
The error I'm getting is
Unable to locate frame 0
You couldnt switch to iframe, better way is to assign an iframe object the swithc to it. You need to find the iframe by xpath:
IWebElement iframe = driver.FindElement(By.XPath("//html//body//iframe"));
driver.SwitchTo().Frame(iframe);
Actions action = new Actions(driver);
action.MoveByOffset(x-coordinate, y-coordinate);
action.Click();
action.Perform();
I was not able to get satisfactory answer after searching on google.
So could you please guide me on this?
I have a div containing li,a,labels below it.
I am able to find the div using CssSelector by its class name.
Now inside this div I want to get a label with its text and then click on it.
The label is as belo:
<label>Sign Out</label>
How to do that ?
I have a working solution using XPath and iterating over all labels inside div, but I am unable to get it using CssSelector.
My Solution:
IWebElement menu = CurrentDriver.FindElement(By.CssSelector("div[class='menu-panel right']"));
IWebElement logoutLabel = menu.FindElement(By.XPath("//label[text()='Sign Out']"));
or
by using foreach:
var coll = menu.FindElements(By.TagName("label"));
foreach (var label in coll)
{
if(label.Text.Trim() =="Sign Out")
{
Log("Sign out was found.");
label.Click();
break;
}
}
I tried with CssSelector:
IWebElement logoutLabel = menu.FindElement(By.CssSelector(":contains('Sign Out')"));
IWebElement logoutLabel = menu.FindElement(By.CssSelector("label:contains('Sign Out')"));
IWebElement logoutLabel = menu.FindElement(By.CssSelector("label['Sign Out']"));
But these are not working.
There is a very good reason why your CSS selector wouldn't work, specifically the contains bit is where it falls over. Why?
It isn't part of the CSS selector specification, and therefore would never work.
The contains that we all know and love is actually coming from Sizzle, the CSS selector engine behind jQuery.
If you want text-based searching, you will either have to use XPath, or get a collection of those elements (using any locator you see fit) and then filter them down in code (like you have done in your foreach loop). There isn't a native CSS-style way to do "text based searching".
In terms of your current code, you will probably also fall over because XPath requires a little "poking" to tell it to search only the child elements of your current "element".
IWebElement menu = CurrentDriver.FindElement(By.CssSelector("div[class='menu-panel right']"));
IWebElement logoutLabel = menu.FindElement(By.XPath("//label[text()='Sign Out']"));
Should be:
IWebElement menu = CurrentDriver.FindElement(By.CssSelector("div[class='menu-panel right']"));
IWebElement logoutLabel = menu.FindElement(By.XPath(".//label[text()='Sign Out']"));
(Note the "." in the XPath)
Also, your foreach loop should have worked, therefore you will have to put a breakpoint in there and check exactly what is being returned by menu.FindElements(By.TagName("label"));.
You are using :contains(), which is a jQuery selector, not a CSS selector.
Apparently there is no way to achieve such thing using only CSS.
More info CSS selector based on element text?
