AI123 Posted September 5, 2019 Posted September 5, 2019 (edited) Hello, on a website there is this given input field that I want to fill out automatically: <div class="input textarea clearfix" id="secondary_tags" data-original-title="" title=""> ::before <span class="taggle_placeholder" style="opacity: 1;">bla</span> <ul class="taggle_list"> <li> <input type="text" class="taggle_input ui-autocomplete-input" tabindex="4" maxlength="100" autocomplete="off" style="padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; width: 10px;"> </li> </ul> </div> The Google developer tools say this is the XPath: //*[@id="secondary_tags"]/ul[1]/li/input So I tried to fill the field with this code: ... $sButton = _WD_FindElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, "//input[@id='secondary_tags']/ul[1]/li/input") _WD_ElementAction($sSession,$sButton,'value', 'tags') ... But I got this error messages: ... $sData={"using":"xpath","value":"//input[@id='secondary_tags']/ul[1]/li/input"} __WD_Post: StatusCode=404; ResponseText={"value":{"error":"no such element","message":"no such element: Unable to locate element: {\"method\":\"xpath\",\"selector\":\"//input[@id='secondary_tags']/ul[1]/li/input\"}\n ... So I tried it this way: ... $sButton = _WD_FindElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, "//input[@id='secondary_tags']") _WD_ElementAction($sSession,$sButton,'value', 'tags') ... But then I got this error messages: $sData={"using":"xpath","value":"//input[@id='secondary_tags']"} __WD_Post: StatusCode=404; ResponseText={"value":{"error":"no such element","message":"no such element: Unable to locate element: {\"method\":\"xpath\",\"selector\":\"//input[@id='secondary_tags']\"}\n Does anybody know what's wrong and what have I to change?

You could try this instead -- $sButton = _WD_FindElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, "//div[@id='secondary_tags']/input") AI123 1 Latest Webdriver UDF Release Webdriver Wiki FAQs

You could try this instead -- $sButton = _WD_FindElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, "//div[@id='secondary_tags']/input") Thank you for your advice, it doesn't work yet but with this change it works: $sButton = _WD_FindElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, "//div[@id='secondary_tags']/ul/li/input") Danp2 1
