I'm pretty new to Selenium and I was trying to create a script to automate some stuff. I can't click on this one button with selenium. This is what I was trying to do, and I have tried a bunch of other options as well. driver.find_element_by_css_selector('a.n_mmi').click()
This is the element I am trying to select.
the element
What is the proper way to do this?
It looks like you misread the id, it's actually m_mmi.
Also as the error says and Effi Hol already pointed out. The find_element_by_* functions are deprecated and you should use findElement() instead.
This should work for you:
driver.findElement(By.id('m_mmi')).click()
Pay attention that n_mmi is the Id and not the class of the element, So change the code as follows:
driver.driver.findElement(By.cssSelector('#n_mmi')).click()
Also, according to the picture you added in the comment, it says that find_element_by_css is deprecated.
The Selenium website has an always helpful example of useage whenever you need a refresher on it's API's https://selenium-python.readthedocs.io/getting-started.html
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.get("http://www.python.org")
assert "Python" in driver.title
elem = driver.find_element_by_name("q")
elem.clear()
elem.send_keys("pycon")
elem.send_keys(Keys.RETURN)
assert "No results found." not in driver.page_source
driver.close()
driver.find_element_by_id('n_mmi').click()
