selenium python error 'dict' object has no attribute 'click'

Question

if href.startswith("https://store.steampowered"):
    browser.get(href)

    if browser.current_url.startswith("https://store.steampowered.com/agecheck"):
        area = browser.find_element_by_id("agecheck_form")
        location_field = area.find_element_by_id("ageYear")

        for option in location_field.find_elements_by_tag_name("option"):
            if int(option.text) == 1999:
                option.click()
                break

            enter = browser.find_element_by_xpath('//*[@id="agecheck_form"]/a')
            enter.location_once_scrolled_into_view.click()

My intention for this bit of code is to go to a steam game page to grab the price of the game. If it encounters the age check wall it runs my above code.

My problem is no matter what way I format the click event on the enter button, it gives me the error: 'dict' object has no attribute 'click'

I have searched into what dictionaries are and still am stumped. I have my suspicions that this problem could be related to my option loop.

location_once_scrolled_into_view returns dictionary, the x and y coordinates of the webelement. Just remove it, selenium will scroll automatically to the webelement before the click.

Thanks a lot! I knew it would've been something simple/stupid

I have the same problem, I had to downgrade selenium to make it work. Can you please elaborate on your solution, I dont understand it fully

@Ash the solution was to remove location_once_scrolled_into_view and just click on the element, I'm not really sure what I can add to that.
