selenium how to get the content of href within some targeted class

I am trying to retrieve the data from the webpage has the html in below

       <div class="someclass">
       <p class="name"><a href="#/word/1/">helloworld</a></p>
       </div>

My goal is to parse "#/word/1/" What I did is

        target = self.driver.find_element_by_class_name('someclass')
        print target
        print target.text
        print target.get_attribute("css=a@href")
        print target.tag_name

but the output are

 <selenium.webdriver.remote.webelement.WebElement object at 0x10bf16210>
 helloworld
 None
 div 

I tried so many ways , it seems there is no way i can get the content of 'a href' within the targeted class.

I really dont want to do is get the source code of the page, and then do a string searching, that seems dumb....

anyway to get that?


Solution 1:

As far as I am aware you can get the href by searching through the child elements

div = self.driver.find_element_by_class_name('someclass')
div.find_element_by_css_selector('a').get_attribute('href')

Solution 2:

This should do it for you:

self.driver.find_element_by_css_selector('.someclass a').get_attribute('href')

Solution 3:

if you search for special tag use from find_element_by_id or classname or xpath and then use get_attribute('href')

in this example print all attribute for a tags

   ids = self.driver.find_elements_by_xpath('//*[@href]')
   for id in ids:
        print(id.get_attribute('href'))
