title: Using Selenium in Python to enter currency format text
body: <p>Trying to enter the value "100000" into a web form using Selenium in Python, but it is consistently not working no matter how I try to send it. </p>
  
  <p>I apologize for my lack of knowledge about the terminology.  I will try my best but I am self-taught and a novice. Also, I apologize but I cannot tell you the website or my employer would not be very happy.</p>
  
  <p>The box on the webpage is automatically populated with a dollar sign. I know that the box in the web form is expecting an integer in currency format. 
  When I look at the html element on the web page it gives the following information</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;input type="number" step="1" name="moneying" size="35" id="moneying" 
  class="moneying input currency error" value="" data-type="currency" data- 
  mandopt="mand" required="" pattern="[\$]?[0-9]+[\.]?[0-9]*" min="500" 
  onblur="validate(this);"&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have tried:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>using the send_keys class just plain without any variation</li>
  <li>clicking the box before using send_keys</li>
  <li>clearing the box before using send_keys</li>
  <li>waiting until the element can be located on the page and then doing all the above</li>
  <li>using send_keys with Keys.NUMPAD#</li>
  <li>adding $ in the beginning of the number</li>
  <li>adding \$ in the beginning of the number</li>
  <li>using Firefox driver instead of Chrome driver</li>
  <li>entering the value as 100000.00 and 100000</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Current version of my code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>    from selenium import webdriver
      driver = webdriver.Chrome('location on my pc')
      try:
          driver.get(r"relevant web page")
          moneying_box_wait = WebDriverWait(driver,20).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.ID,"moneying")))
          moneying_box = driver.find_element_by_id("moneying")
          moneying_box.click()
          moneying_box.clear()
          moneying_box.send_keys("100000")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I want it to enter 100000 in the box.  Nothing appears in the box at all.</p>
