I am trying to close a pop-up message, tried to copy the xpath of the X button on the left corner but no luck, tried switch to different frame no luck also.

What should I try next?

This is what I get when I copy the xpath of the button:

//*[@id='Layer_1']

This is a the relevant part of my script:

        iframes = self.browser.find_elements_by_tag_name("iframe")
        self.browser.switch_to.frame(iframes[1])
        time.sleep(5)
        self.browser.find_element_by_xpath("//*[@id='Layer_1']").click()

Output:

selenium.common.exceptions.NoSuchElementException: Message: no such element: Unable to locate element: {"method":"xpath","selector":"//*[@id='Layer_1']"}
  (Session info: chrome=87.0.4280.66)

Are you sure you switch to right iframe? – KunLun Nov 24 '20 at 13:34
Thats the only frame that has id/name @KunLun – BullBazour Nov 24 '20 at 13:44
You do `self.browser.find_elements_by_tag_name("iframe")[1]` You take the second iframe from DOM, you don't check his id/name. – KunLun Nov 25 '20 at 15:47
That’s the only frame, the array lenght is 1 @KunLun – BullBazour Nov 25 '20 at 15:49
If there is only 1 iframe(length == 1), that means array[1] is invalid. The index of first element is 0. – KunLun Nov 25 '20 at 15:51
I meant the only frame with a name is this one (second one) the first has no name @KunLun – BullBazour Nov 25 '20 at 15:55
`tag_name` is not equal with attribute `name`(``). `tag_name` for `<iframe>` is `iframe`. `tag_name` for `<div>` is `div`. `<tagname ...="">` -> `tagName`</tagname></div> – KunLun Nov 25 '20 at 15:59
what should I do? @KunLun – BullBazour Nov 25 '20 at 16:18
I don't know python, but try this: `iframes = self.browser.find_elements_by_xpath("//iframe[@name]")`, and switch `iframes[1]` with `iframes[0]` if you are 100% sure it's first `iframe` which contains attribute `name`. – KunLun Nov 25 '20 at 17:43
