title: Python Selenium Click and Input Into Text Box
body: <p>I am running Python 3.5 trying to "click" a text box with selenium so I can input rows of numbers. I have already scripted the login and navigation to the text box but I can't get my code to type "1234".</p>
  
  <p>Here is the code, maybe there is something bigger in the HTML I am missing but the inspector tool shows the click box as below...</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;td align="left" style="vertical-align: top;"&gt;&lt;textarea
   class="stb-SearchBox" style="width: 100%; height: 5em;"
   dir=""&gt;&lt;/textarea&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I've tried the below and a few other different ways... maybe i'm missing something?</p>
  
  <pre><code>clickBox = driver.find_elements_by_xpath("//*[contains(class(), 'stb-SearchBox')]").click()
  
  clickBox = driver.find_elements_by_class('stb-SearchBox').click()
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>eventually I will have my code use</p>
  
  <pre><code>clickBox.send_keys("1234")
  </code></pre>
