Selenium find element next to another one

I need to find an element that is located next to another one depending to an if condition.
For example, I'm trying to retrieve the bottom with the word “Log In & Pay” only if I found the words ‘DANA’ before.
I can find the first element with text DANA in this way, but how can I find then the next botton element with the text “Log In & Pay” ?

driver.findElement(By.xpath ("//*[contains(text(), 'DANA')]"));

Below the Html page: enter image description here

try using nested predicates

//div[span[contains(text(), 'DANA')]]/following-sibling::div[@class='action']/div

Explanation //div[span[contains(text(), 'DANA')]] finds the div which contains span with text DANA following-sibling::div finds the following div at the same level

Get the span with the desired text, find the closest ancestor div which contains both els, find the el you want from there. i.e.

//span[contains(text(), 'DANA')]
//ancestor::div[@class='web-pay-wallet-inside-wrap']
//div[@class='action']
/div[contains(text()='Log In & Pay')]

Selenium 4 introduces relative locators which allow to look up elements in relative position to others. Like:

  • above
  • below
  • right of
  • left of
  • and even "near"

You can find examples here.
