Iterating Over WebElements

I'm trying to iterate over row web elements, so as to get bookie odds but my code keeps giving me an empty

python code:

dropdown = WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, '//*[@id="filtermarket-button"]'))).click()

dropdown = WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH,
  '/html/body/div[2]/div[3]/div[5]/'
  'div/div[3]/div/div[2]/div[2]/div/div/'
  'div[1]/div[2]/div[2]/div/ul/li[1]')))

dropdown.click()
driver.implicitly_wait(10)
box = WebDriverWait(driver, 5).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, '//div[@id="subsection"]//div[@id="matchbetting-events"]')))
xpath_str = "//div[@class='row' and @class='eventRow']"
rows = box.find_element(By.XPATH, '//div[contains(@class, "active")]').find_elements(By.XPATH, xpath_str)
for row in rows:
  odds = row.find_element(By.XPATH, './/div[contains(@class, "lipRowTopMargin")]')
  odds_events.append(odds.text)
print(odds_events)

I have tried to use an index to get the values as well as implicit waits, but, still no luck. Your help would be much appreciated

markup is as follows:

  <div class="row eventRow" id="01e346b7-0000-0000-0000-000000000000" data-event-id="01e346b7-0000-0000-0000-000000000000" data-markettitle="Match Result (1X2)" data-eventtitle="AL Wakrah v Sadd" data-sporttitle="Soccer" data-eventdate="2022-01-31 16:30"

Solution

  • Looks like you are missing a dot . in your XPath locator to search for an element inside each row. Without that it will return the first element on the page matching //div[contains(@class, "lipRowTopMargin")] locator.
    Also looks like you are missing indentation for the print.
    So, instead of

    for row in rows:
  odds = row.find_element(By.XPATH, '//div[contains(@class, "lipRowTopMargin")]')
print(odds.text)

    Please try this:

    for row in rows:
  odds = row.find_element(By.XPATH, './/div[contains(@class, "lipRowTopMargin")]')
  print(odds.text)
