Python Selenium get two elements from same part of HTML Code

Question

Hi I'm trying to find those lines save the numbers 30.1 and -10.5 and click on Tony Marco. I'm triying VaR=driver.get_element_by_xpath("//id[contains(@class, 'PointsTabL PointsSel')]//*[contains(@title,'VaR')]") but doesn´t work. Could anybody help me please.

<td>
     <a id="po-s-23320221-h" href="javascript:$M('po').onPoint('s',23320221,'h',30.1)" class="PointsTabL PointsSel">
        <span class="VaR">30.1</span>
        <span class="VaM">-10.5</span>
        <span class="VaL" title="Tony Marco">Tony Marco</span>
     </a>
    </td>

//id[contains(@class, 'PointsTabL PointsSel')]//*[contains(@title,'VaR')]would match nothing for 2 reasons:

you are checking the class attribute of an id element (?) - instead you should use a
you are checking if VaR is inside a title attribute but need to check the class

Fixed version:

//a[contains(@class, 'PointsTabL PointsSel')]//*[contains(@class,'VaR')]

Or, a more concise CSS selector:

VaR = driver.get_element_by_css_selector("a.PointsTabL.PointsSel .VaR")
print(VaR.text)
