I need help selecting an element on a webpage with Selenium. I have been using Selenium on this website for about 3 weeks and so far, I can usually find an element by css selector or XPath. However, this specific section of the website is giving me a very hard time. After I click on “reset office 365 password” a window comes up and I want to programmably put in the new password but it can’t find anything in the popup window. Here is what the page looks like: (I am too low of score to post pictures here) https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/768594779344470022/845811910577881098/unknown.png
Here is the whole element’s information:
<input type="password" tabindex="1" name="password" class="m-third pass ng-pristine ng-empty ng-invalid ng-invalid-required ng-touched" ng-model="password.value" ng-blur="password.check = false" ng-focus="password.check = true" required="" autofocus="" ng-disabled="!active">
Here is what I tried: (I tried a lot of things)
Tried clicking on the password box by using css selector – failed: Invalid selector
im_blacklistaddbutton = browser_options.browser.find_element_by_css_selector('#ng-app > div.page-container > div > div > div.vertical-tabs.j-vertical-tabs.ng-scope > div.vertical-tabs-panes.p0 > div > div > div.page-content.ng-scope > div > div > form > div > div > div.ng-isolate-scope > div.modal > div.modal-body.ng-transclude > div > reset:password > ng-form > div:nth-child(1) > div > div.validation-input > input')
im_blacklistaddbutton.send_keys(email_pd.pd)
selenium.common.exceptions.InvalidSelectorException: Message: invalid selector: An invalid or illegal selector was specified
Tried clicking on the password box by using xpath selector – failed: Namespace Error
im_blacklistaddbutton = browser_options.browser.find_element_by_xpath('//*[@id="ng-app"]/div[2]/div/div/div[3]/div[2]/div/div/div[2]/div/div/form/div/div/div[3]/div[1]/div[2]/div/reset:password/ng-form/div[1]/div/div[1]/input')
im_blacklistaddbutton.send_keys(email_pd.pd)
NamespaceError: Failed to execute 'evaluate' on 'Document': The string '//*[@id="ng-app"]/div[2]/div/div/div[3]/div[2]/div/div/div[2]/div/div/form/div/div/div[3]/div[1]/div[2]/div/reset:password/ng-form/div[1]/div/div[1]/input' contains unresolvable namespaces.
Tried waiting for the element by partial link text: It timed out
wait.until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.PARTIAL_LINK_TEXT, 'Generate password')))
selenium.common.exceptions.TimeoutException: Message:
Tried waiting for the element by ID name text value: It timed out
wait.until(EC.text_to_be_present_in_element((By.CLASS_NAME, 'btn m-link'), "Generate Password"))
selenium.common.exceptions.TimeoutException: Message:
Tried to switch to a window or iframe but it said that the div class of "model" is not a window or an iframe.
From here I am completely lost as to why this stupid window is not accessible. Text window - why are you so mean to me?
Here is my specific function in total:
def reset_im_oa_password():
browser_options.browser.get('https://cpx.intermedia.net/ControlPanel/Menu/AccountMenu/?frameUrl=https://cpx.intermedia.net/aspx/Office365/Home/licenses#/installed/users')
wait = WebDriverWait(browser_options.browser, 10)
try:
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, 'player')))
except exceptions.TimeoutException as e:
pass
browser_options.browser.switch_to_frame('mainFrame')
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, '#ng-app > div.page-container > div > div > div.vertical-tabs.j-vertical-tabs.ng-scope > div.vertical-tabs-panes.p0 > div > div > div.page-content.ng-scope > div > div > form > div > div > div:nth-child(2) > div.table-wrap.table-fixed.j-table-wrap.s-wide.ng-isolate-scope > div.table-filter > div.table-filter-search.searchbox.ng-isolate-scope > div > span:nth-child(3) > input')))
im_blacklistaddbutton = browser_options.browser.find_element_by_css_selector('#ng-app > div.page-container > div > div > div.vertical-tabs.j-vertical-tabs.ng-scope > div.vertical-tabs-panes.p0 > div > div > div.page-content.ng-scope > div > div > form > div > div > div:nth-child(2) > div.table-wrap.table-fixed.j-table-wrap.s-wide.ng-isolate-scope > div.table-filter > div.table-filter-search.searchbox.ng-isolate-scope > div > span:nth-child(3) > input')
im_blacklistaddbutton.send_keys(email_or_user_selection.email_select)

im_blacklistaddbutton.send_keys(Keys.ENTER)
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, ("//*[starts-with(@id, 'btnResetPassword')]"))))
im_blacklistaddbutton = browser_options.browser.find_element_by_xpath(("//*[starts-with(@id, 'btnResetPassword')]"))
im_blacklistaddbutton.send_keys(Keys.ENTER)
try:
wait.until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.PARTIAL_LINK_TEXT, 'Generate password')))
except exceptions.TimeoutException as e:
pass
browser_options.browser.switch_to_window('model') # anything past this section will fail
wait.until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.CLASS_NAME, 'model')))
im_blacklistaddbutton = browser_options.browser.find_element_by_xpath('//*[@id="ng-app"]/div[2]/div/div/div[3]/div[2]/div/div/div[2]/div/div/form/div/div/div[3]/div[1]/div[2]/div/reset:password/ng-form/div[1]/div/div[1]/input')
im_blacklistaddbutton.send_keys(email_pd.pd)
return
if anyone needs the full code from the webpage let me know. Thanks
