How to click on the button with text as Search as per the html through Selenium and Python?

I am trying to use Selenium to click a "Search" Button but I cant seem to locate it.

<div class="search">
            <input type="submit" title="Search" value="Search" class="spinner">
</div>

My code looks like this:

search_button = driver.find_element_by_class_name("spinner")
search_button.send_keys(Keys.RETURN)

Any help would be much much appreciated. Thank you

As per the HTML you have shared to invoke click() on the button with text as Search you can use either of the following solutions:

  • Using click():

    driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[@class='spinner' and @title='Search']").click()

  • Using submit():

    driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[@class='spinner' and @title='Search']").submit()

You can try like this

driver.find_element_by_css_selector(".spinner")
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//div[@class='search']/input")
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[@type='submit' and @title='Search']")
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[@type='submit' and @value='Search']")
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[@title='Search']")
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[@value='Search']")

elementByXpath = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//div[@class='search']")
elementByXpath.find_element_by_tag_name("input").send_keys(Keys.RETURN)
