selenium StaleElementReferenceException:元素未附加到python中的页面文档错误

时间:2018-01-20 23:40:40

标签: python selenium web-scraping selenium-chromedriver staleelementreferenceexception

我试图以递归方式访问一系列网页。访问一页然后返回然后转到下一页,依此类推。使用我的代码,我可以访问第一页然后返回上一页,但我无法访问下一页并获得陈旧的元素引用错误。我仔细阅读了有关此错误的答案,但仍然没有得到我的代码更改状态...

以下是我的代码

"""Get the browser (a "driver")."""

2 个答案:

答案 0 :(得分:0)

当您转到新页面时,上一页中的所有元素都将被销毁/变为陈旧。每次返回起始页面时都必须重新获取元素列表。

最好的解决方案可能是找到所有元素,而迭代它们只是为了取出URL。然后,您可以迭代url列表而不是元素列表。

1)在another post中查看我的答案,以帮助您更好地理解StaleReferenceException的原因。

2)我对您的代码进行了一些更改,您可以尝试一下:

# 2012 Presidential Election
pe_2012 = browser.find_element_by_link_text("2012 Election")

# 2016 Presidential Election
pe_2016 = browser.find_element_by_link_text("2016 Election")

pe_2016.click()

candidates = browser.find_element_by_link_text("campaign speeches")

for i in range(len(candidates)):
    candidates[i].click()
    time.sleep(5)

    speeches = browser.find_elements_by_css_selector("td.listdate > a")
    speeche_count = len(linkls)

    // Begin click each speech link of one candidate

    try:

        for j in range(speeche_count):
            // click on one speeche link
            speeches[j].click()
            time.sleep(5)
            // back to previous page
            browser.back()
            time.sleep(5)

            // find speeches again to avoid StaleReferenceException
            speeches = browser.find_elements_by_css_selector("td.listdate > a")

    except Exception as e:
        print(e)

    // End click each speech link of one candidate

    // back to candidates list page to enter next candidate speech list page
    browser.back()
    time.sleep(5)

    // find candidates again to avoid StaleReferenceException
    candidates = browser.find_element_by_link_text("campaign speeches")
