print python using selenium

Question

from selenium import webdriver 
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import Select 
import time 
import os 
driver = webdriver.Chrome("C:\Users\Mani\Desktop\chromedriver.exe")             
driver.get("https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml_select") 
li=driver.find_element_by_xpath('/html[1]/body[1]') 
for i in li: 
    print(i.text) 
driver.close()

for i in li:
    TypeError: 'WebElement' object is not iterable

find_element_by_xpath --> find_elements_by_xpath. The first returns only the first matching object — PRMoureu

li=driver.find_element_by_xpath('/html[1]/body[1]') will return a single element and you can't iterate using webelement.

You should use li=driver.find_elements_by_xpath('/html[1]/body[1]//li'), if you want to get a list of elements matching with that xpath.
