How I use SELENIUM to AUTOMATE the Web with PYTHON. Pt1

First part in my Selenium mini-series. This first video shows how to install selenium and use the webdriver to open pages, input text into forms and submit, along with a quick look at the wait function to hold for dynamic content.

I spent hours trying to find nested divs in a website I needed to scrape today and I didn't know you could just copy the xpath from the inspector. This video is a godsend lol.

Hey John, Whenever I have to do anything with web scraping or interacting with web browsers I always watch your videos.
Keep up the good work!

Note: AttributeError: 'WebDriver' object has no attribute 'find_element_by_xpath'
Reason:- has been removed from selenium.
Hope it helps.

Great video. I am going to use it to get bond prices. There are so many relationships to monitor that the only possible way to do it is using a Python program. Thanks so much.

Sir can you make more videos about web scraping using selenium. I like the way you teach, I love your channel from Philippines. Simple, Clear and Short.

Hi John, just wanted to know is there any way to scrap hidden div tags/elements using playwright, beautifulsoup etc?
Thanks

I wonder if I can use this to scrape videos from a site that locks when you open the developer tools?

Like, on the site if you open them it will hit a breakpoint and then navigate away.
