selenium bypass javascript popup box

[metulburr]

I am trying to list out my facebook membership groups using selenium, but i cant without bypassing this javascript box. The
   
attempting to proceed without taking care of this box causes

Error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test2.py", line 52, in <module>
    soup = BeautifulSoup(r.page_source, 'lxml')
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'page_source'

Then i added the browser.switch_to_alert().accept() but now i get a no alert open error

Error:
  File "test2.py", line 50, in <module>
    alert.accept()
  File "/home/metulburr/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/selenium/webdriver/common/alert.py", line 90, in accept
    self.driver.execute(Command.ACCEPT_ALERT)

r = browser.get('https://www.facebook.com/groups/?category=groups')
time.sleep(DELAY)
alert = browser.switch_to_alert()
alert.accept()

for _ in range(100): #scroll to make all groups visible
    browser.execute_script("window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight);")

soup = BeautifulSoup(r.page_source, 'lxml')
print(soup.find("div", {"id": "group-discover-card-right-columnmembership"}))

Usually i would just find the XPath to the submit/ok button and select it but with the method i dont think you can see the source of this.

would blocking push notifications (at least temporary) be OK?

Can you use expect to answer the required input automatically?

well i plan on using phantomjs afterwords. Im just using chrome to see what the html is at the time the script executes. I have tried manually allow/block, but the following execution it comes back every time.

Not sure if if look upon as alert.
Then you have to switch window and probably in combo with  window_handles.
driver.switch_to.window(window_name)
Something like this should get the latest open window.
driver.switch_to_window(driver.window_handles[-1])

Doesnt switch to window create a new tab basically? I tried loading a new page, but the javascript popup shows on any page loaded to facebook

It can also handle a pop up window,which it's not an alert.
Now do it look like an alert,so what you have done should work.
Here some alert test.
