I am using Selenium webdriver with firefox to download real states data from a website. Once the inputs are entered a pop up window will ask to either select 'Cancel' or 'Save File'.

The problem is that I'm not able to find how to 'click' these buttons. I know it is already the current window in my driver because I am able to change the enter image description here position.

If I dodriver.find_element_by_xpath('//*'), this is the error I get: 

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "<ipython-input-131-e87e382e3fb9>", line 1, in <module>
    driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*')

NoSuchWindowException: No such content frame; perhaps the listener was not registered

I've searched on the web for solutions and most of them mention switching to alert, driver.switch_to_alert().accept(). This is the error I'm getting:

Traceback (most recent call last):

NoAlertPresentException: No tab modal was open when attempting to get the dialog text

This issue is very similar to Not able to locate element on a modal pop up window : selenium, but I don't understand how the accepted answer there was able to find the selectors.

Any ideas how to solve this issue would be greatly appreciated.

  • Can you provide some more information as: 1. Provide the relevant HTML DOM. 2. Can you share the URL incase it's a public url? – undetected Selenium Mar 30 '17 at 18:59

  • The URL is https://qpublic.schneidercorp.com/ – user3416761 Mar 30 '17 at 19:59
  • Once the site is updated with your input data (address, name) if you scroll down, a Recent Sales button will allow you to download a file. – user3416761 Mar 30 '17 at 20:09
