'ElementNotVisibleException' Unable to click button with Selenium

A rather 'tricky' question that makes my head spin. I'm unable to click a button while using Selenium.



Css selector property: ValidateOrderForm > span > button
Xpath: #//*[@id="ValidateOrderForm"]/span/button


Attempts:



d.find_elements_by_xpath('ValidateOrderForm')[1].clear()
d.find_elements_by_id('ValidateOrderForm')[0].click()
d.find_element_by_css_selector("button.call-to-action").click()


And really everything in between.

Update: it gives the following error



ElementNotVisibleException: element not interactable

    Do you get any errors? Or it just doesn't click?

    Try print(len(d.find_elements_by_css_selector("button.call-to-action"))). Is it 1?

    That means that you might handle hidden button instead of the one you really need... Try more specific selector, like //span/button[.="Bevestigen"]... If it also doesn't work, share more HTML (as text, not as image)

    Can you share the full(er) HTML of the page you are testing?
