问题


I'm trying to select a date form a calendar with python and selenium but I need some help, I did this in VBA but I want to do this in python. Thanks in advance.

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

driver=webdriver.Firefox(executable_path=r'..\geckodriver.exe')
driver.get('https://burghquayregistrationoffice.inis.gov.ie/Website/AMSREG/AMSRegWeb.nsf/AppSelect?OpenForm')    

# this is the problem
driver.find_element_by_id('GNIBExDT').send_keys(10/08/2019)

It's a read-only input - if you look in the HTML src, it's got the readonly attribute. This means that send_keys, which works by emulating key presses as if it were a real user (to also trigger any eventlisteners listening for change in the input), is trying to type your value, but can't, since it's read-only. However, you can still set it manually - try:

driver.execute_script("document.getElementById('GNIBExDT').value = '10/08/2019'")

This executes the following JS code:

document.getElementById('GNIBExDT') // Equivalent of driver.find_element_by_id('GNIBExDT') in pure JS
    .value = // Used to set the 'value' of the input, which is what will be read on the backend when the form is submitted. This just sets the value directly, so it doesn't matter if it's read-only.
    '10/08/2019' // The date, in string form.

It seems like they're just using basic strings on the example website to represent dates, since it's a custom datepicker. So, they're not doing anything special, such as using actual date formats or Date objects. However, since based on the title this is what you'd like, I'll give an example to do such for anyone else who's Googled this problem:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

driver=webdriver.Firefox(executable_path=r'..\geckodriver.exe')
driver.get('https://www.w3schools.com/html/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml_input_date')

driver.execute_script("document.getElementsByTagName('input')[0]"  # Get the date picker from the DOM
                     +".valueAsDate"  # Set the value *as a date object* - this is only available in real date pickers (`<input type='date'>`)
                     +" = new Date('2020-03-11')"  # We therefore need to define it as a date object, which we do in 'yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss GMT+hhmm' format
)

The <input> field associated with the <label> Date of Birth is having the attribute readonly. So to invoke send_keys() you have to:

  • Scroll to bring the element within the viewport.
  • Use execute_script() to remove the readonly attribute.
  • Invoke send_keys() to send the date.
  • You can use the following solution:

    • Code Block:

      from selenium import webdriver
      from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
      from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
      from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
      
      driver.get("https://burghquayregistrationoffice.inis.gov.ie/Website/AMSREG/AMSRegWeb.nsf/AppSelect?OpenForm")
      dob = driver.find_element_by_css_selector("input#DOB")
      driver.execute_script("window.scrollBy(0, 400)")
      driver.execute_script("arguments[0].removeAttribute('readonly')", dob);
      driver.find_element_by_css_selector("input#DOB").send_keys("10/08/2019")
