Python Selenium get attribute 'href' error

//a[contains(text(),'发行信息')]

Even this would work.

print(link.get_attribute("href"))

try this instead:

link = driver.find_element_by_xpath('//div[@class="blk01"]//ul//li[3]//a[contains(text(), "发行信息")]')
print(link.get_attribute("href"))

# Importing necessary modules
from seleniumwire import webdriver
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
import time

# WebDriver Chrome
driver = webdriver.Chrome(ChromeDriverManager().install())

# Target URL
url = 'http://money.finance.sina.com.cn/bond/notice/sz149412.html'
driver.get(url)
time.sleep(5)
link = driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[@class="blue" and contains(text(),"发行信息")]').get_attribute('href')
print(link)

//div[@class='blk01'])//ul//li[3]//a[contains(text(),'发行信息']

does not seem to be a stable xpath and also you mess up with ' and ". This is the main problem.

Try this first:

find_element_by_xpath('//div[@class="blk01"])//ul//li[3]//a[contains(text(),"发行信息"]')

If it works, try just:

find_element_by_xpath('//a[contains(text(),"发行信息"]')

The goal is to make xpath as short as possible.

Any particular reason to use Selenium here? It's present in the html source, so would be more efficient to use requests and beautifulsoup.

import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

url = 'http://money.finance.sina.com.cn/bond/notice/sz149412.html'
response = requests.get(url)

soup = BeautifulSoup(response.text, 'html.parser')


a_tag = soup.select_one('a:contains("发行信息")') 
#a_tag = soup.select_one('a:-soup-contains("发行信息")') # <- depending what version of bs4 you have, the above may throw error since it's depricated

link = a_tag['href']

Ouput:

print(link)
