WebDriver UDF - Help & Support (II)

Thanks, I thought so.

I have another question,

Is there anyway to count the number of open tabs ?

I'm using portable chrome, with headless mode, my automation includes opening tabs for each process, so I want to know if the number of tabs exceed for example 10 open tabs, the browser closes and reopens the browser fresh, to avoid system resources overload.

@Siwa You should be able to handle this (see what I did there? 😛) with _WD_Window and its Handles command.

Hi Dan,
hi community.

Iam new here, but I already gained a lot of experience from your posts in this thread. Thanks for that!

I am currently building a script to get a specific text shown on a website.

Basically this is the code I put in to find the number:

$sElementSelector = "//span[@id='trade_block_spot_price']"
$sElement = _WD_FindElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, $sElementSelector)
$sText = _WD_ElementAction($sSession, $sElement, 'property', 'innerText')

This is the element itself. I want to get the 53.50717:

<span class="patterns__info-val" id="trade_block_spot_price">53.50717</span>

The xpath:

//*[@id="trade_block_spot_price"]

The full xpath:

/html/body/aside/div[2]/div[1]/div/div/div[1]/form/ul/li[1]/span

I tried different variantes but I always get the following message shown on the sciTE console:

I already rebuild my system environment (like mentioned in the wiki)because somehow in my very first try it was working. After I build around that small script part a couple of days later it was not working anymore. Now I restarted from scratch with just that basic code and its still not working.

Maybe it has to do with the complex structure of the website. The element is inside this sidebar (shown on the attached screenshot.)

Basically I can for example get another text (751,163.455) from the upper bar which is not that far down in the tree:

code used:
$sElementSelector = "//span[@id='account_current_balance_usd']"
$sElement = _WD_FindElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, $sElementSelector)
$sText = _WD_ElementAction($sSession, $sElement, 'property', 'innerText')

copy of element:
<span id="account_current_balance_usd" class="" original-title="Additional $ reserved in escrow">751,163.455</span>
xpath:
//*[@id="account_current_balance_usd"]
Full xpath:
/html/body/div[3]/header/div[2]/div[3]/a/p/span

Thanks for any help and suggestion.

greetings

@PaddyHeady Have you ruled out frames? What is the site's URL?

Danp2 · January 22, 2021

@PaddyHeady Reply here instead of PM so that everyone can benefit --

I can't access the site (blocked by Cloudflare; maybe geographic restrictions?). Looking at the HTML source, there are clearly iframes present. If your desired element is contained within a frame, then you must switch to the frame before you can access the element.

Yes seems like US is restricted.

Thanks for your reply. I will look further into how to switch to the right iframe.

Hello,

I am trying to pass variable from keyboard using:

$sUsername = $CmdLine[1]
sPassword = $CmdLine[2]

and put it into fields on the twitter login page:

$sElement = _WD_GetElementByName($sSession, "session[username_or_email]")
If Not @error Then _WD_SetElementValue($sSession, $sElement, $sUsername)

$sElement = _WD_GetElementByName($sSession, "session[password]")
If Not @error Then _WD_SetElementValue($sSession, $sElement, sPassword)

I worked few times, but after few compilations it can't find my elements 😕

@Wo0ki3 It may not have any effect, but your version of Chromedriver doesn't match your version of Chrome. You may want to update to a newer version of Chromedriver and then try again.

If the issue still occurs, then suggest that you post a short script that we can run to reproduce this issue. You could also try running with another browser (Firefox, Edge, etc) to see if the behavior can be reproduced elsewhere.

Wo0ki3 · January 26, 2021

Does Chromedriver need to be at the same version as Chrome? After update my chromedriver version is 88.0.4324.96 and chrome is 88.0.4324.104.

My code:

#include "wd_core.au3"
#include "wd_helper.au3"

Local $sDesiredCapabilities, $sSession, $sElement
SetupChrome ()

$sUsername = $CmdLine[1]
$Password = $CmdLine[2]

_WD_Startup()
$sSession = _WD_CreateSession($sDesiredCapabilities)
_WD_Navigate($sSession, "https://twitter.com/login")

$sElement = _WD_GetElementByName($sSession, "session[username_or_email]")
If Not @error Then _WD_SetElementValue($sSession, $sElement, $sUsername)

$sElement = _WD_GetElementByName($sSession, "session[password]")
If Not @error Then _WD_SetElementValue($sSession, $sElement, $Password)

_WD_Shutdown()

Func SetupChrome()
_WD_Option('Driver', 'chromedriver.exe')
_WD_Option('Port', 9515)
_WD_Option('DriverParams', '--verbose --log-path="' & @ScriptDir & '\chrome.log"')

$sDesiredCapabilities = '{"capabilities": {"alwaysMatch": {"goog:chromeOptions": {"w3c": true, "excludeSwitches": [ "enable-automation"], "useAutomationExtension": false }}}}'
EndFunc

Danp2 · January 26, 2021

I think you are ok as long as the major version numbers match. So you encounter the issue by just running this script repeatedly?

Have you tried adding the following before the _WD_Shutdown?

_WD_DeleteSession($sSession)

Edit:

Ok... so the issue is that the code is executing before the webpage has finished loading. You'll need to add something like the following after your _WD_Navigate --

_WD_WaitElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, "//input[@type='text']")

Edited January 26, 2021 by Danp2

Wo0ki3 · January 27, 2021

How do you locate the XPath? I tried some chrome extensions, but the code that I am getting from them don't work with my scripts 😕

For example, I am trying to click on Accept on: https://fortigate.fortidemo.com/login. My xpath is:

/html/body/div[1]/div/div/div[3]/div/form/button[1]

in my code:

$sButton = _WD_FindElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, "/html/body/div[1]/div/div/div[3]/div/form/button[1]")
_WD_ElementAction($sSession, $sButton, 'click')

Danp2 · January 27, 2021

I use the ChroPath extension. Details can be found here. Not sure why, but it currently appears to be missing from the Chrome web store.

You can try this xpath instead -- //button[@name='accept']

Wo0ki3 · January 28, 2021

Your sample clarifies a lot for me! Thank you

What about when the button doesn't have a "name"?

<button class="button primary ng-binding" ng-click="$ctrl.loginReadOnly()">
                    Login Read-Only
                </button>

EDIT:

I have installed the chropath on Edge and it helps a lot. Much better than the other addons.

But still, this button that I posted earlier, I can't click it 😕

ChroPath should still give you a valid xpath for that. It will just not use the name in the process. For example --

//button[contains(text(),'Accept')]

is an alternative xpath to the initial button we were working on.

Hi Dan,

I have a strange problem:

Sometimes an error occurs when deleting a session and the script ends.
I'm trying to catch the error like this:

_WD_DeleteSession($arrsh[$i])
            If @error = $_WD_ERROR_Exception Then
                ShellExecute('taskkill.exe', '/IM "chrome.exe" /F')
                Exit
            EndIf

But nothing happens, the script crashes

In the console, the error looks like this:

_WD_DeleteSession($arrsh[$i])
_WD_DeleteSession(^ ERROR

Edited January 28, 2021 by sarge

Danp2 · January 28, 2021

@sarge Unless I'm mistaken (seems to occur more often lately 😉), that would indicate an issue with the array $arrsh. How is it being declared / assigned a value?

sarge · January 28, 2021

Like this:

_WD_Navigate($sSession, "https://m.test.com/test/")
Sleep (Random(2500,3000,4000))
$aElements = _WD_FindElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, "//a[@class='broadcaster-cell']", Default, True)
_WD_ElementAction($sSession, $aElements[Random(0,UBound($aElements)-1,1)], 'click')
Sleep (Random(2500,3000,4000))
_ArrayAdd($arrsh, $sSession)

I just noticed that a similar error occurs when you select a session window and do something there ...
For example, you go to the previous page.
Or even just when selected, it is not covered by a script ...

What happens if no elements are found? I would recommend checking @error following the call to _WD_FindElement.

_ArrayAdd($arrsh, $sSession)

Can you elaborate why you are doing this?
That shows where you are adding the session to the array, but doesn't show where the array is originally declared.
If you must capture the session in an array, why not do it at the point the session is created?

Sorry, but I don't understand what you are attempting to describe. Best bet is to post a short reproducer script that we can run to observe the issue.

caramen · February 6, 2021

Hello @Danp2 I have this part of script :

Func _CreationTicket1 ()                                            ;Création ticket 1
    ToolTip ( "Exist seek new incident" , 1 , 1 )
    WinActivate("Google")
    Send("^q")
    Sleep(1500)
    Local $sFrame = _WD_FindElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, "//frame[@id='main']")
    _WD_FrameEnter($sSession, $sFrame)
    ConsoleWrite("TopWindow=" & _WD_IsWindowTop($sSession) & @CRLF)
    $sElement = _WD_FindElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, "//input[contains(@id,'ORIG_t')]")
    _WD_ElementAction($sSession, $sElement, 'click' )
    Sleep(200)
    _WD_ElementAction($sSession, $sElement, 'value' , 'm' )
    Send("{ENTER}")
    Sleep(1000)
EndFunc ;=>_CreationTicket1 ()

The purpose is simple pop up a combo list and send m and select the element.

image.png.d38ae1fdf67287f09738a48ec63e48ed.png

I tried the example from the wiki trying to adapt it to my needs. Didn't success to select the item without such bad lines like that. Could you lead me the right direction again please ?

Edited February 6, 2021 by caramen

Danp2 · February 6, 2021

@caramen You should already know that Send() should only be used as a last resort. What are you attempting to do here?

WinActivate("Google")
    Send("^q")

It's difficult to know how to guide you without further details, such as --

Results from Scite output panel so that we can see success / failure of your calls to the UDF
HTML for the web page or at least the element you need to control

FWIW, you may be able to use _WD_ElementOptionSelect to select the desired entry in the combo list.
