Unable to use SendKeys, JavaExecuter to enter data in text field

[Rashmi Upari]

Hello All,

In my project, I'm trying to enter data in Weight text field, attached is the Inspect Element of tht field.

Send keys or javaexecuter is not working, please guide me how to enter data in such fields

Tried code

//WebElement weight = driver.findElement(By.xpath("/html/body/div[2]/form/div[4]/div/div[1]/div/div/div[2]/div/div/div/div[3]/div[6]/div[5]/div/span[1]/span/input[1]"));

//WebElement weight=driver.findElement(By.xpath("/html/body/div[2]/form/div[4]/div/div[1]/div/div/div[2]/div/div/div/div[3]/div[6]/div[5]/div/span[1]/span"));

//weight.clear();

String inputText = "33";

WebElement myElement = driver.findElement(By.xpath("/html/body/div[2]/form/div[4]/div/div[1]/div/div/div[2]/div/div/div/div[3]/div[6]/div[5]/div/span[1]/span/input[1]"));

String js = ("arguments[0].setAttribute('value','"+inputText+"')");

((JavascriptExecutor) driver).executeScript(js, myElement);

Hello, Rashmi,

First of all I could see that you have used the "absolute xpath" which is not recommended. 

Secondnly, Screen shot which you provided with that it's difficult to create a relative xpath. So in order to help you we need your html code snippet(Only form which has all that fields, not complete HTML) so that we can create exact xpath and help you further.

Do you able to enter the value in text/combo box manually, Or you are selecting the value?

//input[contains(@class,'cmbUnit-list')] use this xpath and chk

Hi Rashmi,

It`s not preferred way of using absolute xpath. And the html code you sent is very difficult to know how nodes exist in DOM. Could not able to find parent-child relation of the nodes.
But as per the screenshot & html code , try the below xpath and use sendkeys to enter data.

//label[contains(.,'Weight')]/following-sibling::span//input[1]    [works only if span is the sibling of label]

If you are sure about your xpath, try to use Action Builder.
Try with the sample code.

                WebElement TxtWeight = Driver.FindElement(By.Xpath("//label[contains(.,'Weight')]/following-sibling::span//input[1] "));

                Actions action = new Actions(Driver);

                action.SendKeys(InitDriver.Driver.FindElement(TxtWeight, "20");

Regards
