Get the value of disabled input using Selenium WebDriver

I'm trying to get value of a disabled (disabled="disabled") <input> field, but it returns an empty string.

I have tried: .Text, GetAttribute("value"), but none of this works so far.

The only option that worked for me...

WebElement webElement = driver.findElement(By.xpath("*******"));
jsExecutor= (JavascriptExecutor) driver;  
String compareHolder = (String) jsExecutor.executeScript("return arguments[0].value", webElement);

If you tag it like this -

<input disabled="true" id='data'>

Your code should be -

WebElement.getAttribute("disabled")

or

WebElement.getAttribute("id")

Make sure your code is correct.

For this tag -

<input id="j_idt93:j_idt93" type="text" disabled="disabled" maxlength="2000" value="Pārtraukts">

To get the value attribute -

String value = driver.findElement(By.id("j_idt93:j_idt93")).getAttribute("value");

value must be Pārtraukts

If this does not work, you may have to use the JavaScript executor -

String value =  (String)((JavascriptExecutor) driver).executeScript("JavaScript query in here to return the value", "");

Your query should be -

return document.getElementById("j_idt93:j_idt93").getAttribute("value");
