I want to click the search box where "Search for a company" is written in the webpage (webpage inspect element screenshot below ) using Selenium WebDriver in python and want to send some text to that search box. I have written below code:

yourOption = selenium_webdriver.find_element_by_css_selector("input[type='search']")
yourOption.send_keys("532005"
time.sleep(1)
yourOption.send_keys(Keys.DOWN)
time.sleep(1)
yourOption.send_keys(Keys.RETURN))

I am getting following exception:

ElementNotInteractableException: element not interactable

Here is the screenshot of inspect element of webpage.

Can somebody please help?

Is my argument that I am passing to find_element_by_css_selector correct? – Yogesh Tyagi Jan 04 '21 at 03:48
Is there any way to know if WebElement is under Temporary Overlay or Permanent Overlay? – Yogesh Tyagi Jan 04 '21 at 03:50
