python – How to refresh an already opened web page

I would suggest binding the driver element search to the tag body and use the refresh command of the browser.

In OSX for example

driver.find_element_by_tag_name(body).send_keys(Keys.COMMAND + r)

Documentation on keys here: http://selenium-python.readthedocs.org/en/latest/api.html

Update:
The following code, very similar to your one, works fine for me.

    driver = webdriver.Firefox()
    driver.get(response.url) #tested in combination with scrapy   
    time.sleep(3)   
    driver.refresh()

Are you sure you correctly load the web page with the driver before refreshing it ?

The problem is you are opening the webdriver and then trying to refresh when you have not specified a URL.

All you need to do is get your desired URL before refreshing:

from selenium import webdriver
import urllib
import urllib2
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.get(Your desired URL goes here...)
#now you can refresh the page!
driver.refresh()

The following codes work for me

driver.get(driver.current_url)
sleep(2)
driver.refresh()

I use python 3.7.6, selenium 3.141.0
