title: Python Selenium: input textbox, send_keys not working
body: <p>In my python code, I want to input a date in the Date textbox. However, the existing date cannot be cleared, and a date cannot be entered either. I am using Selenium. I think the element is found, but anyway the Send_keys() function does not work on this textbox. What is the problem? </p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
