Selenium(PYTHON) How to manipulate attributes

Question

So this is more of a conceptual question, but im having trouble understanding whether or not i can manipulate the properties of a class, i understand how to navigate through the elements, but what if i want to in my case, make the element hidden, in the code below I have a for loop run through a bunch of coins that are classes that constantly dis/re appear on the screen so i have to count them before i can run through them all, hence 'count = len' but i made a print statement that even shows that the code runs through all the indexes properly, but they wont hide on the screen, what am i doing wrong

count = len(driver.find_elements_by_class_name('coinlist'))


for x in range(count):

    x += 1
    flip = driver.find_element_by_xpath(f"//ul[@class='coinlist']/div[{str(x)}]")
    flip.isdisplayed() = false

Answer 1

You have to use driver.execute_script() with JS to modify the DOM.

count = len(driver.find_elements_by_class_name('coinlist'))

for x in range(count):
    
    x += 1
    flip = driver.find_element_by_xpath(f"//ul[@class='coinlist']/div[{str(x)}]")
    driver.execute_script("arguments[0].setAttribute('style','visibility:hidden;');", flip)

Should do the trick
