Unable to locate element using selenium webdriver in python

Question

I want to do some automation testing on a website called http://elegalix.allahabadhighcourt.in. I am using the following python code to click a button called \"Advanced\" on

Answer 1

It's because the element you are looking for is inside a frame, switch to the frame first and then search for the element

from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Chrome('./chromedriver')
driver.get('http://elegalix.allahabadhighcourt.in')
driver.set_page_load_timeout(20)
driver.maximize_window()
driver.switch_to.frame(driver.find_element_by_name('sidebarmenu'))
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[@value='Advanced']").click()
driver.switch_to.default_content()

Answer 2

I faced with this issue and the problem about the window size. Because when windows size is small objects place has changed so i use driver.maximize_window() and then i use driver.find method it works properly.
