Cant Access Element That Are Shown In Developer Tools But Not In Page Source

I have the same problem that is stated in below link, but i am looking for a way to access those elements (using jquery) that are not present in page source but are visible in deve

Solution 1:

If an element is present in devtools, then you should be able to access them with standard methods.

With the example given in your link, if we have

<tableid='mytable'><td>cell1</td><td>cell2</td></table>

<tbody> is not in the original code. However, it is interpreted by the browser as:

<tableid="mytable"><tbody><tr><td>cell1</td><td>cell2</td></tr></tbody></table>

You can still use CSS or JavaScript (jQuery) selectors to access <tbody>.

jquery

$('#mytable tbody')...

css

#mytabletbody { ... }

If this example isn't relevant to you, then please post your relevant HTML for us to look at more closely.


With your updated question, my guess is that you are trying to select that parent container before it has any children in it. Try wrapping your selector in a document.ready or some other function that would make sure the content is already loaded.

$(document).ready(function(){
    $('.ewr-sheetcontainer')
})
