To print the partial value of onclick event i.e. 1523442 you have to induce WebDriverWait for the desired visibility_of_element_located() and you can use the following solution:

Using CSS_SELECTOR:

print(WebDriverWait(browser, 20).until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "div.tabla_szoveg>div.torrent_konyvjelzo2"))).get_attribute("onclick").split("'")[1])

Using XPATH:

print(WebDriverWait(browser, 20).until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "//div[class='tabla_szoveg']/div[@class='torrent_konyvjelzo2']"))).get_attribute("onclick").split("'")[1])

@perzsa Of coarse that should work too. In that case, don't print the number but store it as a variable. – undetected Selenium Nov 27 '19 at 22:17

Please check if torrent_konyvjelzo2 is dynamic ,if not then you can also replace below torrent text with it otherwise you can use below code as it is.

split("'")[1] is used to split your konyvjelzo('1523442'); text

konyvjelzo( --> item 0
1523442     --> item 1
);          --> item 2

the first item index starts from 0. so we can return 1 item.

from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By


element = WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "//div[contains(@class, 'torrent')]")))
attribute=element.get_attribute("onclick")
print attribute.split("'")[1]

i think you could just use simple regex to find this easily

ids = re.findall("onclick=\"konyvjelzo\('(.*?)'\);",page_text)
