get the href link after traversing through divs using selenium in python

Question

I am new to Selenium.. I am trying to get the href link which is present inside two div elements

<div class="abc def">
 <div class="foo xyz">
 <a href="/watch123" ></a>
 </div>
</div>

How do I get the href link? I have tried

persons = []
for person in item.find_elements_by_class_name('abc.def'):
 title = person.find_element_by_xpath('.//div[@class="foo.xyz"]/a').text
 link = title.get_attribute("href")

but it does not work

Answer 1

Try this: assuming your browser driver is called "driver" and all your elements' attributes are unique.

• Xpath:

  element = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//div[@class='foo xyz']/a")
  link = element.get_attribute("href")
  

• Css selector:

  element = driver.find_element_by_css_selector("div[class='foo xyz']>a")
  link = element.get_attribute("href")
