Property innertext was not found.

[Mephisto090]

Hello dear developer,

I get the error message: CefSharp.Puppeteer.PuppeteerException: "Property innertext was not found."

I use very simple

    Public Async Function GetElementString(ByVal Elements As ElementHandle, ByVal Attribute As String) As Task(Of String)
        If Attribute.ToLower = "innertext" Or Attribute.ToLower = "outerText" Or Attribute.ToLower = "innerHTML" Or Attribute.ToLower = "outerHTML" Then
            Return Await Elements.GetPropertyValueAsync(Of String)(Attribute.ToLower)
        Else
            Return Await Elements.GetAttributeValueAsync(Of String)(Attribute.ToLower)
        End If
    End Function

I hope this information is enough for you.

I use an extra function because I have to distinguish between each attribute. Would it be possible for cefsharp to make a difference?

CefSharp.Puppeteer.PuppeteerException: "Property innertext was not found."

The error is self explanatory really, there is no such property. The language is case sensitive, it's innerText not innertext.

As I've said before you'd be better removing these functions they make your code harder to read and maintain, offer little value.

Its work thanks.

What is this error telling me? :D
CefSharp.Puppeteer.PuppeteerException: "Node is either not visible or not an HTMLElement"

Isn't there a way you can output the error like this: Property innertext was not found. The property must be called innerText!

That's a nice idea, doubt it would be practical to implement.

Improving the error message reminding users that properties are case sensitive and to check their spelling is a simple improvement.

Can you tell me what you mean by this error?

Error message has been improved in commit 107e4a5 and will be in the next release.
