This is my code right here in Python and I am using web browser module and pyautogui module.

I wanted a way in which I can check if the webpage is loaded completely so that the required actions do not take place at a blank screen.

import webbrowser
import pyautogui, time

url = 'youtube.com'  # or something else


chrome_path = r"C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe"

webbrowser.register("chrome", None, webbrowser.BackgroundBrowser(chrome_path))

webbrowser.get("chrome").open_new_tab(url)

I want to execute the below code after the page is completely loaded. Currently i am using the time.sleep manual function but it doesn't work pretty well and is inefficient

time.sleep(20)

pyautogui.leftClick(484, 447)

shouldn't you be using selenium for this? selenium can wait for the precise element on the screen to be loaded / become visible – tsamridh86 Oct 09 '21 at 02:12
Yes, I should use selenium but the problem with selenium is that is always opens the webpage in internet explorer so I had to use web browser. – Netherite Gaming Oct 10 '21 at 03:22
you can use other browsers too in selenium... i use chrome myself – tsamridh86 Oct 10 '21 at 12:20
