How to get full date value from HTML using Selenium (Python)

Question

I am trying to get date from HTML using selenium. The problem is, that in the HTML (if viewed through the console in a browser) I see the full date like 01.01.2001, but selenium returns me 01.January what I should do, to get full date?

The part of HTML(what I see in the browser console) looks like this:

<div>
   <h4 class="status-param"> Name and Surname </h4>
   <h4 class="status-param"> Date of Birth: 01.01.2001 </h4>     <!--problem only with this -->
   <h4 class="status-param"> 12.12.2012 00:00 </h4>
</div>

my code

driver = webdriver.Chrome('chrome/chromedriver')
        driver.get(html)
        result = []
        try:
            elements = WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(
                EC.presence_of_all_elements_located((By.CLASS_NAME, "status-param"))
            )

            for element in elements:
                result.append(element.text)
        finally:
            driver.quit()

I get the following

'Name and Surname'
'Date of Birth:  01.January'
'12.12.2012'

Answer 1

use the below xpath :

(//div/h4[@class='status-param'])[2]

and use it like this :

elements = WebDriverWait(driver , 10).until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "(//div/h4[@class='status-param'])[2]"))).get_attribute('innerHTML')
print(elements)

the above should only prints 01.01.2001

Update 1 :

You can simply break string into 2 parts ang grab the second part like this :

print(elements.split("\\:")[1])
