Is it possible to somehow select a specific element from the drop-down list on the page using the splinter module in Python

Question

Is there any way to select a specific element from the drop-down list on the page via the splinter module in Python?

I have the following HTML code:

<select id="xyz">
   <optgroup label="Group1">
      <option value="1">pick1</option>
      <option value="2">pick2</option>
   </optgroup>
   <optgroup label="Group2">
       <option value="3">pick3</option>
       <option value="4">pick4</option>
   </optgroup>
</select>

Suppose I need to select the pick3 option. How can i do this?

Answer 1

First find the item selectusing find_by_id()and use select()to select an option:

element = browser.find_by_id('xyz').first
element.select('3')

An alternative solution would be to use find_by_xpath()and click():

element = browser.find_by_xpath('//select[@id="xyz"]//option[@value="3"]').first
element.click()

Answer 2

try

browser.find_option_by_text('pick3').first.click()
