python - Webdriver. How to retrieve the xpath of found element? -


i have bit of code finds element based on visible text. 

# defines text looking productname = "customer x job" #finds element looking inputelement = driver.find_element_by_xpath(".//*[@id='demo_top']/div/table[2]/tbody/tr/td[1]/ul/li[2]/ul/li[1]/a".format(productname))

i need click box right of this.

the specific xpath of element is: 

#what found /html/body/div[1]/div/div/table[2]/tbody/tr/td[1]/ul/li[2]/ul/li[1]/a #the box want click /html/body/div[1]/div/div/table[2]/tbody/tr/td[1]/ul/li[2]/ul/li[1]/span/a

so need add "/span/a" xpath of inputelement. issue is, don't know specific xpath of element. there way me convert inputelement specific xpath, can append "/span/a" end of , click element?

edit: seems mistaken, need replace final "a" "span/a"

below html:

<li class="tcbullet"> <span> <a class="editcategory " onclick="return hs.htmlexpand(this, { objecttype: 'iframe' } );" href="cat-frame-category.php?categoryid=1340"> </a>  #i want click <span class="sort">sort: 0</span> </span> <a class="anchorcategory" alt="eden cognitive content" href="?ownerid=c518&g=1085&t=1340">eden cognitive content</a>  # have found </li>

i want access editcatagory link, , have found anchorcategory link.

you can call find_element_by_xpath() on element have found:

link = inputelement.find_element_by_xpath('./preceding-sibling::span/a')

this select a tag inside span following a tag have found.
