Hi @adham.rasoul do you have an example public web page? What web browser are you using?

Yes this https://www.facebook.com/Cognitect/posts/pfbid0oWQuewGELmYMLiVELC6e93iyfZZcwHYT3xVSeLwRX7j24WNPi9VfGkJ4HjgpbtMUl shows it. By hovering over "July 17, 2018" by mouse or getting there by invoking

(e/fill-active driver
               (k/chord k/tab))

Oh, I don't have a Facebook account and have no plans to ever have one. Would you happen to have another example?

This shouldn't require a Facebook account, I can open it with Etaoin and clear the login prompt, let me supply a minimal example

Oh ya, ok, I see

I'm still sipping my first coffee of the day, will take a peek sometime soon.

(def driver (e/firefox))
(e/go driver "")
;; Remove the login prompt
(e/click driver
         [{:css ".xc9qbxq > i:nth-child(1)"}])
;; Tab to the date
(repeatedly 8
              (fn []
                (e/fill-active driver
                               (k/chord k/tab))))

@lee I'm sipping my second coffee so all good, thanks!

Slack has something similar, when I inspect element I find a data-ts attribute with a unix timestamp as its value but I am unable to find a similar thing in the FB one. They also both show an event button in the Firefox Inspector.

@adham.rasoul, it is a bit tricky because the DOM is manipulated on hover. I fiddled with the browser inspector and saw the parent element dynamically gets an aria-describedy attribute on link hover, this, in turn, seems to point to an element that has the full date text. Here's what I tacked onto the end of your example above:

(let [parent-el (e/query driver :active "..")
      describe-elem-id (e/get-element-attr-el driver parent-el "aria-describedby") ]
  (e/get-element-text driver {:id describe-elem-id}))
;; => "Tuesday, July 17, 2018 at 10:47 AM"

To note: this seems to be returning the full date in the local time zone.

Yes this works for me! Didn't think to monitor the DOM as I hover over it, I'll try to learn to do this and add it to my toolbelt, thank you for your time and help No worries about the local time zone that can be fixed after parsing, the big thing is learn here is to work with a dynamic DOM I have one question, what does the syntax ".." mean here? Is it a sort of catch-all classes?

It means parent. So (e/query driver :active "..") asks for the parent element of the current active element.

I see and I did some googling and this looks it comes form an https://stackoverflow.com/questions/28237694/xpath-get-parent-node-from-child-nodesyntax, am I correct?

Yep, the .. is an XPath thing.

Relevant etaoin docs are https://cljdoc.org/d/etaoin/etaoin/1.0.40/doc/user-guide#_simple_queries_xpath_css, which points to these docs on https://www.w3schools.com/xml/xpath_syntax.asp.

Understood, I need to sit down for these details soon since I'll be working more with Etaoin, my approach at the moment is Ctrl-F through the -amazingly well written- guide, thank you again this clears all my questions

Glad to be of help! Drop by anytime if you get stuck again.
