How to locate and insert a value in a text box (input) using Python Selenium?

by

Assuming your page is available under “http://example.com“

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys

driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.get("http://example.com")

Select element by id:

inputElement = driver.find_element_by_id("a1")
inputElement.send_keys('1')

Now you can simulate hitting ENTER:

inputElement.send_keys(Keys.ENTER)

or if it is a form you can submit:

inputElement.submit()
