I'm trying to develop a website automation using selenium webdriver on python, but i'm having trouble clicking on a certain tag.
The website I'm trying to automate is very old and contains multiple iframe and <'html'> tags, and that's giving me a hard time on finding the xpath of the element want to click.
This is the resultant xpath using the copy xpath feature of browser:
/html/body/div/table[2]/tbody/tr/td/table/tbody/tr[1]/td[1]/table/tbody/tr/td/table/tbody/tr/td/div/span[2]/div[1]/img
However, it appears that this xpath is only considering the last <'html'> tag the element is contained, and not all of them, and therefore it's not being able to execute the click.
I tried changing the index of the <'html'> tag, for example
html[2]/body/...
but it didn't work.
Any ideas?
You haven't shown us any of your code, but I bet that it fails to switch to the target frame. With iframes, you must instruct the webdriver to switch_to to each iframe before it will find elements within the frame. If you update your question with some of your code, I can show you where the switch_to statements might go.
