Access child elements in Selenium

Using Python’s Selenium I got the first div element because I needed the onclick element.

driver.find_element(By.CLASS_NAME, 'card-user-frontpage')
# I got the onclick element

This part is working for me. But now I also want to have the img element starting from the code above. I don’t want to use XPATH.

<div class="action-link card card-user-frontpage card-user-36405612 hover" onclick="window.location.href='/user/36405612/3';">
    <div class="card-block">
        <div class="userimage action-link pull-left placeholder" onclick="window.location.href='/user/36405612/3';">
            <img onclick="" src="blabla../user/170x170/male.jpg" class=" userimage-170x170 user-image" data-show-count="0" data-toggle="tooltip" title="" data-original-title="">

Like accessing the child elements in Selenium. Is that possible?

>Solution :

To locate the <img> element you can use either of the following Locator Strategies:

• Using css_selector:

  element = driver.find_element(By.CSS_SELECTOR, ".card-user-frontpage > div.card-block > div.userimage.action-link.pull-left.placeholder > img")
  

• With respect to the element you found:

  element = driver.find_element(By.CLASS_NAME, 'card-user-frontpage')
  # I got the onclick element
  my_element = element.find_element(By.CSS_SELECTOR, "div.card-block > div.userimage.action-link.pull-left.placeholder > img")
