Anybody has a solution to locate a button in webpage with an overlayed popup window like in the following example:
from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Firefox(executable_path=r'./geckodriver')
driver.get("https://www.academics.de/")
#after waiting for a while the popup window comes up
driver.find_elements_by_xpath("//*[contains(text(), 'Zustimmen')]")
The returned list is empty. Running the following
driver.find_element_by_css_selector(".button-accept")
results in:
NoSuchElementException: Message: Unable to locate element: .button-accept
This may be helpful.
executable_path = r"C:\\Users\\Selenium+Python\\geckodriver.exe"
options.add_experimental_option("prefs", {"profile.default_content_setting_values.notifications": 2})
options.add_experimental_option("prefs", {"profile.default_content_settings.cookies": 2})
options.add_argument("start-maximized")
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path, options=options)
The element with the text as E-Mail Login is within an iframe so you have to:
Induce WebDriverWait for the desired frame to be available and switch to it .
Induce WebDriverWait for the desired element to be clickable .
You can use either of the following Locator Strategies :
Using CSS_SELECTOR
:
driver.get("https://www.academics.de/") WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.frame_to_be_available_and_switch_to_it((By.CSS_SELECTOR,"iframe[title='SP Consent Message']"))) WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "button[title='Zustimmen']"))).click()
Using XPATH
:
driver.get("https://www.academics.de/") WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.frame_to_be_available_and_switch_to_it((By.XPATH,"//iframe[@title='SP Consent Message']"))) WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//button[@title='Zustimmen']"))).click()
Note : You have to add the following imports:
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

An easy workaround to your problem would be to use uBlock Origin extension + Fanboy's Annoyances blocklist on your Selenium instance so that these annoying cookies messages would outright never appear. A way of enabling extensions is described in this StackOverflow answer :
- Create a new firefox profile via right click windows start button > run > firefox.exe -P
- Then add whatever extensions you want, ublock, adblock plus etc
- Call your profile folder with
profile = selenium.webdriver.FirefoxProfile("C:/test")
browser = selenium.webdriver.Firefox(firefox_profile=profile, options=ops)
