Laravel dusk selector, how to use :first An invalid or illegal selector was specified


I have elements in a page as follows:

<input name="birth_date" autocomplete="off" value="12/09/2022">
<input name="birth_date" autocomplete="off" value="12/09/2022">

and I want to enter data on the first element with that name.

I would like to avoid xpath.

I have tried:

$browser->type('input[name=\'birth_date\']:first','12/10/2022');
$browser->type("input[name='birth_date']:first",'12/10/2022');

but keep getting invalid selector: An invalid or illegal selector was specified.


Solution

  • You can try with this selector:

    input[name="birth_date"]:first-of-type
    

    With your code could be something like:

    $browser->type('input[name="birth_date"]:first-of-type','12/10/2022');
