Hi I am trying to figure it out how to pick day from the calendar in Python. I would like to select the date 04/27/2022 under requested loading date. I read some post related to this but I could not figure it out. This is what I did so far but not working.
driver = webdriver.Chrome(PATH) link = "https://www.freightquote.com/" driver.get(link) sleep(2) driver.maximize_window() #click Accept WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//button[@id='truste-consent-button']"))).click() #Scroll down: total_height = int(driver.execute_script("return document.body.scrollHeight")) [enter image description here][1]for i in range(1, 500, 5): driver.execute_script("window.scrollTo(0, {});".format(i)) WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, '//input[@class="datepicker-here hasDatepicker-od" and @id="txtShippingDate" ]'))).click() WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, '//div[@class="datepicker--cell datepicker--cell-day" and @data-date="27" and @data-month="3" an @data-year="2022"]'))).click()

You do not really have to click on calendar and select a value, you can just execute the JS command like below:
driver.maximize_window() wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 30) driver.get("https://www.freightquote.com/") try: wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.ID, "truste-consent-button"))).click() print("Clicked on cookies accept button") except: pass time.sleep(5) requested_loading_date = wait.until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.ID, "txtShippingDate"))) driver.execute_script("arguments[0].value = arguments[1]", requested_loading_date, "04/27/2022")
Imports:
import time from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
