Unable to send keys value inside my password field

Question

Hi peeps,

I was trying to go login page for a particular UI

But I was not able to send a value to my password field.

HTML Content:

<input type="password" class="editbox" name="airstation_pass" placeholder="Enter the password." value="" data-fn="this.focus()" onfocus="dispElem('help_pass', '', this);" onblur="dispElem('help_pass', 'none', this);" onmouseover="dispElem('help_pass', '', this);" onmouseout="dispElem('help_pass', 'none', this);" xpath="1">

python Code:

password = driver.find_elements_by_name("airstation_pass")

# password.clear()
if password.is_displayed():
    password.click()
    password.clear()
    password.send_keys("password")

Error :

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/Documents/test_samples/Buffalo_ap.py", line 19, in <module>
    password.click()
AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'click'
[Finished in 34.9s with exit code 1]

@Santhosh I guess that the password field is a textbox and not a button so try using the code without password.click()

Answer 1

Hey thanks for the input..
I found the answer if type= password you have to use the below command to execute it.

Driver.fine_element_by_css_selector("input[type=password").sendkeys("password")

Hey @Santhosh, glad you got the answer but again this is what i tried on facebook and it works fine for me.

I wrote the code in Java:

driver.get("https://www.facebook.com");
driver.findElement(By.id("email")).sendKeys("myemail@gmail.com");
driver.findElement(By.id("pass")).sendKeys("Pa55word");

I tried the same for Gmail and it also worked absolutely fine:

driver.get("https://www.gmail.com");
driver.findElement(By.id("identifierId")).sendKeys("priyaj");
WebElement password = driver.findElement(By.name("password"));

---

not working for me in gmail case.
