selenium - How to enter value into box?

Question

I'm trying to change the "Adults" value on the Southwest Airlines website using Selenium (Python). I want to be able to specify the number of passengers directly, instead of hitting the +/- buttons. Seems like it should be fairly easy to do, but I can't figure it out. Here is the code I have (not working):

passengers = browser.find_element_by_id('air-pax-count-adults')
passengers.send_keys('3') # Number of passengers

I've also tried the following (doesn't work either):

passengers = browser.find_element_by_id('air-pax-count-adults')
passenges.click()
passengers.send_keys('3') # Number of passengers

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

This is a "readonly" input and you have to remove the readonly attribute in order to be able to interact with it in a traditional way:

passengers = browser.find_element_by_id('air-pax-count-adults')
browser.execute_script("arguments[0].removeAttribute('readonly', 0);", passengers)

passengers.click()
passengers.clear()
passengers.send_keys('3')  # Number of passengers
