How To Select/click In A Dropdown Content Using Selenium Chromewebdriver / Python

My website form have updated and my script is no more working. I cannot fix it because I'm not able to find how to select in a dropdown content using selenium chrome web driver and

Solution 1:

First try to click to the combobox, then wait until state option(li) element is visible and click.

In code below, I used css selector to get li by title. If you want to find element by text, use: wait.until(ec.visibility_of_element_located((By.XPATH, f"//li[.='{state}' and @class = 'next-menu-item']"))).click()

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as ec
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait

driver = webdriver.Chrome()
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 10)

state = "Alabama"
driver.find_element_by_css_selector('input[placeholder="State/Province/Region"]').click()
wait.until(ec.visibility_of_element_located((
    By.CSS_SELECTOR, f"li.next-menu-item[title='{state}']"))).click()

Solution 2:

JS SetAttribute works surprisingly well for Combobox. Try

JavascriptExecutorjs= (JavascriptExecutor) driver;
js.executeScript("document.getElementById('//id of element').setAttribute('value', '//value to set')");
// to click
js.executeScript("arguments[0].click();", element);
