    print d.text

<a class="uiLinkSubtle" href="/sherryl.cheary/activity/10152833559161998">
<abbr class="timestamp" data-utime="1419713801" title="Saturday, December 27, 2014 at 12:56pm">about a month ago</abbr>
</a>

I need the text inside the title but the below code sh

z= i.find_elements_by_xpath('//a/descendant::abbr/@title')
for dd in z:
    print dd.text

Its shows the error called " web element has no attr title or some thing wrong in xpath"

Answer 1

i.find_elements_by_xpath('//div[@class="_4w5j"]/span//u')[0].text

i.find_elements_by_xpath('//a/abbr')[0].get_attribute('title')

Answer 2

Why do you stick with xpath?

Consider this

 find_element_by_tag_name('u').text         

 find_element_by_tag_name('abbr').get_attribute('title')

You have to adjust it to search for elements if you have multiple u and abbr tags.

Anyway this will be much more readable for you in future.

In may opinion you should not overuse xpath stuff, especially if you can get what you need with simpler methods like lookup by tag_name or class or css_selector
