scroll/move to element API

[davide moro]

Hi,

we have an application that does something only if the element is visible (eg: click on a badge for selecting it). Basically if you click on that selector nothing happens, if you scroll to the element and click the select occurs.

How do you suggest to solve this problem with splinter?
* use "splinter.execute_script" and use javascript in order to scroll to the target element
* is there any splinter API avoiding javascript execution?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,

davide

Hello Davide,

Would using the `mouse_over` element method work? I am not sure if that will do a scroll event. I was thinking about something like:

btn = browser.find_by_css('#btn')
btn.mouse_over()
btn.click()

Not sure if this works for your case but would give it a try.

Hi Hugo,

thanks for your reply.

I've tried with mouse_over but I get this problem:

(Pdb) self.find_element(strategy, locator)
<splinter.driver.webdriver.WebDriverElement object at 0x7f7c0c163610>
(Pdb) self.find_element(strategy, locator).mouse_over()
*** WebDriverException: Message: POST /session/28b4d082-558a-400a-a0f9-caec481045dd/moveto did not match a known command

I've seen something similar using selenium but it doesn't seem to be compatible with splinter:

I hope there is a better way using APIs and not js.

Thanks.

Any hint would be very appreciated.

Cheers,

davide
