Quite simple, but I'm confused. On my Python script which does web scraping with selenium, all the inputs are

input_country = driver.find_element(By.NAME, "country")
input_country.send_keys(" Німеччина ")
time.sleep(5)

for country is no space inside needed but when it comes to the input send keys, without space after " it does remove the first letter when writing it to the website.

Does it have any special reason or is it depending on the website?

Sorry for my English I'm still learning.

I tried removing space but it would remove the first letter: example here: (" Німеччина ") this works correct, ("Німеччина") this writes імеччина.

I assume you're using Chrome.

In that case, this is a common issue. Maybe the answers in resource.
