Im trying to take a snapshot of the webpage i open but i need to delay the second part of the code so that the program has time to open the page

Here is the code

import webbrowser
webbrowser.open_new(input("URL: "))
#Need to delay here

SaveDirectory=r'C:\Documents and Settings\User\My Documents\My Pictures'
ImageEditorPath=r'C:\WINDOWS\system32\mspaint.exe'
img=ImageGrab.grab()
box = (100, 100, 400, 400)
region = img.crop(box)
saveas=os.path.join(SaveDirectory,'ScreenShot_'+'.png')
img.save(saveas)
editorstring='""%s" "%s"'% (ImageEditorPath,saveas) 
os.system(editorstring)
Solution

  • you can try to use time.sleep(seconds) to let your program delay for a while.
