use XPath, and click()
example:

        search_box = browser.find_element(By.XPATH, '//*[@id="quickSearch_BusinessName"]')
        search_box.send_keys(searchitem)
        browser.find_element(By.XPATH, '//*[@id="btn_Search"]').click()
        time.sleep(2)

In Firefox, You can get the XPath of the button, by bringing up site, right click on button and select Inspect Element-->Copy-->XPath

Thank you for your message. I've used Chrome Driver, so i use xpath but it is not working, not clicking.
I have tried it but i couldnt do. Can you explain it obviously.

search_box = browser.find_element(By.XPATH, 'xpath way?')
search_box.send_keys(searchitem ???)
browser.find_element(By.XPATH, '//*[@id="Not Now"]').click()
time.sleep(2)

Actually, I posted the wrong example, should have been and it uses css selector:

page_button_css = 
    'mainContent > table:nth-child(5) > tbody:nth-child(1) > tr:nth-child(1) > td:nth-child(3) > font:nth-child(1) > a:nth-child(1)'
next_page = self.browser.find_element(By.PARTIAL_LINK_TEXT, 'Next 250')
ActionChains(self.browser).move_to_element(next_page)
next_page.click()

the imports needed are:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.action_chains import ActionChains
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By

Thank you :) I solve that like this. I have imported these libraries.

from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By

These xpaths are the same xpath and "Not Now" is the button which one i wanted to click.

search_box = browser.find_element(By.XPATH, '/html/body/div[2]/div/div/div/div[3]/button[2]')
search_box.send_keys("Not Now")
browser.find_element(By.XPATH, '/html/body/div[2]/div/div/div/div[3]/button[2]').click()

So i solve this problem with this. :) Thank you for your help! :)

These two lines from your solution seems redundant to me. Sending keys to a button element does nothing

search_box = browser.find_element(By.XPATH, '/html/body/div[2]/div/div/div/div[3]/button[2]')
search_box.send_keys("Not Now")

RE: Selenium click on popup button??? - GuJu - Jan-20-2019

Yes you are right i tried it a few min. before. Those lines are redundant. :) Thank you for your help and information.
