I am using python with selenium to pull data from the website below: http://www.worldhospitaldirectory.com/klinik-fur-anaesthesiologie-und-intensivmedizin/info/4181

Screenshot of Page As you can see from this picture. I want to get Hospital Name, Category, Address, Country, Phone, Website, and email.

But when I inspect elements, I found that there are no id, or class name to do.
Category: General Hospitals
Address: .....

I really have no idea how to pull them from this website. Please help me or give me some advices.

you should be able to find html tag which contains 'Category' text (below c# code):

var category = driver.FindElement(By.XPath("//b[contains(., 'Category')]"));

[edit]

to get text of that element:

var textOfCategoryField = category.Text;

and to grab values from other fields just replace string 'Category' for each element:

var textOfAddressField = driver.FindElement(By.XPath("//b[contains(., 'Address')]")).Text;
var textOfCountryField = driver.FindElement(By.XPath("//b[contains(., 'Country')]")).Text;

etc..

  • Thanks. I tried. It worked to pull 'Catergory:' from web page. But I want to get the text after this Catergory:. What should I do? Can i use Xpath to locate them? – Peter Cui Feb 05 '17 at 03:43
  • use Text property on element – Jakub Obstarczyk Feb 05 '17 at 10:48
  • Thanks Jakub, now I can get the text "Category:" only. The original web source is like that Category:General Hospitals
    , I cannot get the text "general hosiptals".     – Peter Cui Feb 05 '17 at 14:12
  • ah sorry now I see that 'General Hospitals' is text node, try the solution described here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8505375/getting-text-from-a-node/ – Jakub Obstarczyk Feb 05 '17 at 16:22
