I got stuck.. so many hours.. looked up hundreds of questions & answers here..

I want to grep data from a banks product website, e.g. “Delta” from:

https://wertpapiere.ing.de/Investieren/Derivat/DE000HS2JL06
(

link will be dead on 17.09.2024 as product is going to end then)

delta.text should be -0,0193

First attempt:

delta = driver.find_element(By.XPATH, '//*[text()='Delta']/following-sibling::td')
w

orks sometimes.. mostly not.. for what reason? It could be the case as “Delta” appears 10 times on the site but then:

delta = driver.find_element(By.XPATH, '//*[text()='Delta']/[5]following-sibling::td') 
s

hould solve the issue but it doesn’t.

Another try:

delta = driver.find_element(By.XPATH, '//td[contains(text(), "Delta")]/following-sibling::td') 

should work but doesn’t either.

The attempt with the full patch should solve the issue:

delta = driver.find_element(By.XPATH, '/html/body/main/div[2]/div/div[2]/div[1]/sh-derivative-greeks/div/div[1]/div/table/tbody/tr[2]/td[2]')

but the element can’t be found; I assume because of the dynamic IDs the site is generating.

Does anyone have the decisive tip?

Thanks so much!
