I have the DOM element below:
<span class="styles__Content-rlm06o-1 ixoRjG">20.00000000</span>
that I am trying to get the 20.00000000 value from with:
text = driver.find_elements_by_xpath("//*[@class='styles__Content-rlm06o-1 ixoRjG']")[0].text
...
number = float(text)
But Python returns back could not convert string to float: '' meaning that the 20.00000000 is not being recognized as text. This code has worked on other websites, so maybe this is a website specific thing? Or is there something I'm overlooking?
You can try to get the text of the first element with this xpath:
el_text = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//span[contains(@class, 'styles__Content-rlm06o-1 ixoRjG')][1]").text
Also, you can use css selectors with way:
el_text = driver.find_element_by_css_selector(".styles__Content-rlm06o-1.ixoRjG:nth-of-type(1)").text
If text is still empty, make sure you are waiting for the element to become visible and that this element is not inside iframe.
