Hello Andrew, I have been watching your videos for quite a long time now and they all are very detailed and well explained. You are really excellent at what you do. Thank you for sharing your precious knowledge!
Hello Andrew. Another absolutely amazing video delivered by an absolute tutorial God. I seriously enjoy the information, delivery and manner by which you deliver the content. I cannot praise you highly enough. I shall be a Wise Owler for life now and already thinking about other videos I can begin to learn from. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, skills and for being a genuinely good human...
Great video Andrew! I was wondering if it would be possible to see how to work with emails through selesium. Gmail for example. Compose emails and maybe attach some file to it would be interesting.
Thanks Juan Pablo, I'm not sure if Selenium is the best choice for manipulating Gmail (Google provide an API for working with Gmail) but I'll put your suggestion on the list!
@@WiseOwlTutorials Thanks for your reply! I ask this because every time I say I can manipulate outlook with VBA I get the question if I can do the same with Gmail.
Good afternoon from Spain. I've ben following your web scraping tutorials and they are brilliant, amazing and comprehensible. I would appreciate enormously treat the issue "error 10 stale element reference exception" and how to solve it with vba and selenium.
Buenos días Manuel! Stale element errors occur when you use a variable to store a reference to an element on the page, when the page (or some part of it) is refreshed the original reference to the element is "stale". You can use the same code you used to get the element originally to get a reference to the refreshed version of the element. I hope that helps!
Dear Andrew, like the other commenters I find your teaching style amazingly clear and you have helped me enormously. Unfortunately the methods using Internet Explorer directly from Access/Excel don't work through Edge, IE is being phased out, and some of the old websites I work with need Edge to open in IE mode. I have tried to use the IEDriver but am struggling to get it to work. Could you please extend this video with an example of how to open a webpage in IE mode in Edge and automate it using Selenium rather than the techniques in the earlier video series? Thank you very much Paul
Hi Paul! I'm afraid I don't know how to do this but I wonder if Method 3 in the answer shown here might help you? stackoverflow.com/questions/70619305/automating-edge-browser-using-vba-without-downloading-selenium
I’ve watched a lot of your videos about selenium to automate web. But error occurs when I clicked previewer button and a new tab (about blank) open. If I want to download pdf file, I have to switch to this tab and click the download button. It’s not successful and I got ‘timeout not receiving message from renderer” . I tried many solutions but can not solve this problem.

Hi Livia! I'm not really an expert on Selenium troubleshooting but I can recommend StackOverflow as a great source of help stackoverflow.com/ Try searching for the text of your error message and if don't find any matches you can post your own question. There are many people there waiting to help! I hope that's useful!
@@KhalilYasserThanks. I am testing my hypothesis that the underlying .NET framework might be a limitation. I'd be interested to know which .Net version Andrew is using in this case? The actual version being used as it is possible to have multiple installed versions.
I am, yes. Windows 10 Version 20H2 Build 19042.746 I have the following .NET Framework versions installed: 2.0.50727.4927 Service Pack 2 3.0.30729.4926 Service Pack 2 3.5.30729.4926 Service Pack 1 4.0.0.0 4.8.04084 I hope that helps!
@@WiseOwlTutorials Thank you. Do you know which is being picked up by selenium basic? Maybe not that easy to determine but I guess first on env path? I can no longer use selenium with VBA due to what I suspect is related to underlying .NET that is being picked up. Odd as never used to have a problem.
@@DM-py7pj Hmm, I could be wrong but I think that's unlikely. The source code from GitHub contains three Visual C# Class Library projects, each of which are set to target the .NET 3.5 Framework. I can't think of anything that would cause the final libraries to use a different .NET Framework version. All I can suggest are the obvious things such as reinstalling the 3.5 Framework and checking that your web driver is up to date but I'm sure that you've done that already!

Wow, where did that "validate" button popped from? I had no idea it was there (Running Excel Mac 2011 and, yes, works as intended).
