Driver Links
Download appropriate driver binary from above link. Add the downloaded executable in system path or specify executable_path in the constructor like.
driver = webdriver.Firefox(executable_path='path\to\geckodriver.exe')
RE: Error Message Pip - webdesign909 - Feb-11-2018
browser = webdriver.Firefox(executable_path'C:\Users\Dirk\Downloads\geckodriver-v0.19.1-win64\geckodriver.exe')
What am I missing?
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
RE: Error Message Pip - j.crater - Feb-11-2018
Compared to @hbknjr's code a '=' sign between executable_path and path string.
RE: Error Message Pip - snippsat - Feb-12-2018
Also raw string
r or backlash other way in path /.This is because of escape character.
browser = webdriver.Firefox(executable_path=r'C:\Users\Dirk\Downloads\geckodriver-v0.19.1-win64\geckodriver.exe')

Thank you Snippsat. Looks like it opened Firefox but I still
received an error. I have attached the new image.

You have Python 32-bit so you need geckodriver-v0.19.1-win32.zip
