'selenium.common.exceptions.ElementClickInterceptedException: Message: element click intercepted error clicking a radio-button using Selenium Python
I'm trying to automate the following site - https://apps.royalbank.com/apps/home-value-estimator#!/
It works fine with the following code - but when i get to the site where I have to choose the radio-button I am not able to click on this radio-button:
link = "https://apps.royalbank.com/apps/home-value-estimator#!/"
WAIT = 1
RUN = True
driver = webdriver.Chrome (service=srv, options=options)
waitWebDriver = WebDriverWait (driver, 10)
print(f"\nChecking value for address: {address} on {link}...")
if MINIMIZE:
driver.minimize_window()
driver.get (link)
print(f"Input address...")
time.sleep(WAIT)
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//input[@name='address']").send_keys(address)
time.sleep(WAIT)
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//input[@name='address']").send_keys(Keys.ARROW_DOWN)
time.sleep(WAIT)
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//input[@name='address']").send_keys(Keys.ENTER)
time.sleep(WAIT)
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//form[@name='addressForm']//following-sibling::button").click()
time.sleep(WAIT)
print(f"Select type...")
if inpData[1] == "Detached House":
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//label[@for='detached']").click()
elif inpData[1] == "Condo Townhouse":
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//label[@for='townhouse']").click()
elif inpData[1] == "Semi Detached":
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//label[@for='semidetached']").click()
elif inpData[1] == "Condo Apt.":
tmpElem = driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//label[@for='condo']")
if tmpElem.is_displayed():
tmpElem.click()
else:
print(f"Error - Address not found... - skipped...")
RUN = False
else:
print(f"Error - Wrong Property Type {inpData[1]} in B2... - stopped...")
RUN = False
if RUN:
time.sleep(WAIT)
print(f"Select value and date...")
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "(//form[@name='typeForm']//following::button)[1]").click()
time.sleep(WAIT)
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//input[@name='price']").send_keys(str(inpData[3]))
time.sleep(WAIT)
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//select[@name='month']").send_keys(str(inpData[4]))
time.sleep(WAIT)
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//select[@name='year']").send_keys(str(inpData[5]))
time.sleep(WAIT)
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "(//form[@name='priceForm']//following::button)[1]").click()
time.sleep(WAIT)
# driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//input[@id='no-renovate']").click()
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//label[@for='no-renovate']").click()
time.sleep(WAIT)
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "(//form[@name='renovatingForm']//following::button)[1]").click()
time.sleep(WAIT)
print(f"Wait for value...")
It crashes at this statement:
# driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//input[@id='no-renovate']").click()
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//label[@for='no-renovate']").click()
with the error message:

How can i select the radio-button using Selenium?
Solution 1:[1]
Walking through I was not able to repro your issue...and I believe it may be because you are using time.sleep to wait for elements to appear; drawback to this is sometimes it waits too long (a pain when debugging); or sometimes not long enough (and you error and have to iterate through testing attempts).
A better approach might be to leverage expected conditions to be met before interacting with an element. Might want to try something like below...
from selenium.common import exceptions
from selenium.common.exceptions import TimeoutException
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
def ClickByXPATH(NameOfObject):
try:
item = WebDriverWait(driver, 15).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, NameOfObject)))
item.click()
except TimeoutException as e:
print("Couldn't Click by name on: " + str(NameOfObject))
pass
#....
#driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//label[@for='no-renovate']").click()
ClickByXPATH("//label[@for='no-renovate']")
#...
