ElementNotInteractableException: Message: Element could not be scrolled into view while trying to click an element using Selenium and Python

Question

I have this code:

driver.switch_to.window(window_after)

try:
    myElem = WebDriverWait(driver, delay).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.NAME, \'_eventId         


        

Answer 1

Here are the 2 options.

Using selenium location_once_scrolled_into_view method:

btn.location_once_scrolled_into_view

Using Javascript:

driver.execute_script("arguments[0].scrollIntoView();",btn)

Sample Code:

driver.get(url)
element = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//a[.='Contact Us']")
element.location_once_scrolled_into_view
time.sleep(1)
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//p[.='active']").location_once_scrolled_into_view
driver.execute_script("arguments[0].scrollIntoView();",element)
