Selenium python 在前五个元素之后停止迭代，而列表中有更多元素

Question

I am writing a code to download some files from a webpage. The code starts fine and there are 27 files to download, but after the first 5 downloads, I get a ElementClickInterceptedException error for the following elements. Can anyone tell me why the code stops downloading the rest of the files?

Here is the (part of the) code:

        actions = ActionChains(driver)

        xlbr2 = driver.find_elements_by_xpath("//*[@class='mf mf-xbrl']")
        print(len(xlbr2))
        for link in range(4, 27):
            time.sleep(2)
            print(link)
            try:
                xlbr2 = driver.find_elements_by_xpath("//*[@class='mf mf-xbrl']")
                xlbr2 = driver.find_elements_by_xpath("//*[@class='mf mf-xbrl']")[link]
                actions.move_to_element(xlbr2).perform()
                xlbr2.click()
                # xlbr2 = driver.find_elements_by_xpath("//*[@class='mf mf-xbrl']")[link].click()
                time.sleep(1)
                download = driver.find_element_by_xpath('/html/body/div[2]/div[8]/div/div/div/div[1]/div/div[2]/ul/div/div[4]/a/button/i')
                print('downloading file...')
                download.click()
                time.sleep(2)
                driver.back()
                # time.sleep(2)

            except Exception as err:
                print(f"{type(err).__name__} was raised: {err}")

Answer 1

You did not share a link to the page you are working on, so I can't know what is the actual problem there, however I can guess you have to scroll the page in order to reach those elements.
It so something like this will help:

actions = ActionChains(driver)
xlbr2 = driver.find_elements_by_xpath("//*[@class='mf mf-xbrl']")
print(len(xlbr2))
for link in range(len(xlbr2)):
    time.sleep(2)
    print(link)
    try:
        xlbr2 = driver.find_elements_by_xpath("//*[@class='mf mf-xbrl']")[link].click()              
        time.sleep(1)
        download = driver.find_element_by_xpath('/html/body/div[2]/div[8]/div/div/div/div[1]/div/div[2]/ul/div/div[4]/a/button/i')
        print('downloading file...')
        actions.move_to_element(download).perform()
        download.click()
        time.sleep(2)
        driver.back()

    except Exception as err:
        print(f"{type(err).__name__} was raised: {err}")

You will have to import this

from selenium.webdriver.common.action_chains import ActionChains

It is also possible that there is some accept cookie banner on the bottom of the page that you should close...
need to see the actual page to give more precise answer.

Answer 2

driver.execute_script('arguments[0].click()', element) This solved the issue
