Python Selenium find placeholder if it contains

At the moment my code is

driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[@placeholder='phone']").send_keys('000000000000')

How would I make it so it would find the placeholder if it contained the word "phone", not just finding the exact word like it is at the moment?

Thanks

You can use the contains() function to check if the placeholder attribute contains the word "phone":

Code:

driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[contains(@placeholder, 'phone')]").send_keys('000000000000')

This will find any input elements with a placeholder attribute that contains the word "phone", rather than just matching the exact string "phone".
