Selenium find element with document.write

I am trying to run some automatic scripts on a webpage with selenium and python, but the problem I'm having is that the webpage is loaded using document.write().
I have to find some elements, but they are not shown because when I view the source, it is shown as document.write(A lot of JS) instead of the html.
How can I do it so that I can view the HTML source code? I know there is the function driver.execute_script(), but I have to specify the script to run, and I don't think it will work.
The page is correctly rendered, only problem is the source cannot be parsed.

As it turns out after some digging into the code, Selenium does the search in the rendered final view, but the problem was not the document.write(), but the fact that the field I was looking for was in an iframe, which selenium could not find on the default frame.
All I had to do was search through the iframes and find the ones that I needed.

basic javascript alert not working in Intel XDK code editor

I'm starting fresh with a new blank Intel project and I haven't even started coding yet. I'm just setting up my file tree and making sure the html and javascript pages are connected via the right anchors and script paths. My first .js file won't work though.
I've included a screen shot of test code and the errors. I know the syntax is correct because it works when I put it in <script> tags in the index.html file.
I'm getting "document not defined" and "alert not defined" errors or the js page though. I don't know what that means.
I've considered that my script tag src path in the index file is incorrect, but all the paths are relative in the commented out template script tags intel provides on the index page right out of the box, so why would I have to use an absolute path?
My path is: js/Test.js and it's the last script tag before the body.
Index.html file
*****UPDATE****
So I've tried a few things and it's still not working but I HAVE managed to get my errors down to just one inexplicable "missing semicolon", which will turn into an "unnecessary semicolon" error if I place it.
Any way as per the first screen shot you'll see that I wasn't placing the document object inside of an explicitly declared variable. Once I did that and accessed it through dot syntax instead of an equal sign then I stopped getting the error. I included this screenshot to show my work before I made the changes.
so the problem I went on to have is that unless every function or dom object was declared with "Var", I'd get an error. This includes the alert() function which I don't think I've ever seen needing to be declared that way, but I gave the code editor what it wanted and this last screenshot is the results. It's not working, BUT I'm not getting the errors I was before, except for the missing/unnecessary semicolon paradox. Removing it or including it throws an error.

JavaScript can be loaded before or after the HTML, however the way it is done is slightly different depending on how you do it.
For example if you wish to include your JavaScript files within the head of the HTML file then you must wrap your JavaScript code with either DOMContentLoaded or jQuery's $(document).ready().
The common misconception of using window.onload will not fix the issue where the elements have not loaded in correctly.
The Mozilla Developer Network states on this page:
The DOMContentLoaded event is fired when the initial HTML document has been completely loaded and parsed, without waiting for stylesheets, images, and subframes to finish loading. A very different event - load - should be used only to detect a fully-loaded page. It is an incredibly popular mistake to use load where DOMContentLoaded would be much more appropriate, so be cautious.
That quote in itself should prove that onload should not be relied on if you want the full DOM to be loaded properly before you start manipulating it. Instead you should do the following:
Vanilla
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function (e) {
/** DOM has been fully loaded here, so manipulation can begin. **/
/** Your code here. **/
});
jQuery
$(document).ready(function () {
/** DOM has been fully loaded here, so manipulation can begin. **/
/** Your code here. **/
});
Click this link to see the difference between vanilla and jQuery.
The second way you can load JavaScript is by having all the script tags within the body but after all the HTML, that way it is guaranteed to load after the HTML.
Example
Try this working example I quickly coded up.
HTML
Replace the content within the body tag of your HTML to the following:
<button id="myJsTest">Click Me!</button>
<div id="clickCounter">Click Count: 0</div>
Replace the contents of your JavaScript with the following:
JavaScript
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function() {
var clickCount = 0;
document.getElementById("myJsTest").addEventListener("click", function() {
clickCount++;
document.getElementById("clickCounter").innerText = "Click Count: " + clickCount;
});
});
Then use the Emulate tab in Intel XDK to test it.
Additional Information
When I use Intel XDK and I have an error, I quickly load the file in to the browser and check the console. It can be a really helpful and effective way of squashing those pesky little bugs.
Try using window.alert as alert is defined in the window object.

The reason you're seeing all those "error" messages in the editor window is because you've got the various JSLint/Hint tools loaded in the editor. They're trying to keep you honest and save you lots of time in the debugger chasing potential syntax errors.
The editor inside the XDK is Brackets, it is using standard Brackets extensions to provide those JSLint/Hint tools. You can download it and run it standalone on your system and edit directly within it, you don't have to use the editor inside the XDK (or you can use any other editor you like).
Because the Lint/Hint tools only look at one file at a time, and because your app is normally spread over multiple files, they don't know much about about what's defined in your other files. Likewise, those hint/lint tools need to be told that you're using some of the standard global methods and properties that are expected to be found in a browser (but which may not be found in other JavaScript environments, because JavaScript is no longer limited to just a browser environment -- in fact, your XDK app, aka Cordova app, runs inside a "webview" not in a browser, but that's another story...)
So, you should follow some standard practice of setting up your JSHint/Lint directives at the top of your JS files. For example, this is a good starting point:
/*jslint browser:true, devel:true, white:true, vars:true */
/*global $:false, intel:false */
See the JSHint documentation for details... and see the "Blank Cordova Starter App" in the "Start a New Project" section of the Projects tab for a better blank template to start (there is no real difference between a blank template and a demo app, they are structured identically).
For a more complete and even more instructive app, see the "Hello, Cordova" sample app. Both of those apps can also be found on the Intel XDK GitHub repo.

You are adding the js file that is <script src="js/Test.js"></script> inside header tag.
So js will be first loaded and and it will attach all events to it. But when js is loaded button id="jsTest" is not present because DOM is not loaded.
Solutions :-You can follow either of the approach
Add your js files after DOM is ready
<body>
<button id ="js/Test.js">Test JS</button>
// other HTML tags
<script src = "js/Test.js></script>
</body>
Use window.onload
The load event fires at the end of the document loading process.
window.onload = testJsFile(){
//Your code goes here
}
I will prefer to use the first approach since that also address other issues like page loading time

Try to put the line outside your JS function
document.getElementById(......
inside your html page between
<script>HERE</script>
If this is still no working. Try to add onClick attribute to the button like this:
<button id="" onClick="testJsFile()">
Its also good to use google chrome element inspection while devlopping cuse it will give you error msg for all these things.

My image called to is not showing up

I am new to coding and trying to make a chrome app which basically displays a bunch of fake error messages. I called to the image with a button, but the image is not showing up. Could someone please help and tell me what I am doing wrong?? Here is the code;
I was having some trouble with the putting the code in, so...

There's nothing wrong with ur code, but with its implementation. First open console (F12) and check if js file has been loaded properly. Also You should really consider where to put ur external javascript files. Usually they are placed in html head tag or just before closing body tag .
The difference between both of them is that, if u place js file in header, its loading priority is high, so it loads before DOM (Document Object Model, so just a HTML structure) and when u place it before body closing tags, DOM will load first, so user can see inetrface faster (Since js is loading after browser renders it).
After copy & paste of ur code and making a little cleaning it works. What i've done was deleting all unneccessary HTML code, changing js file name to something more expressive (in my case script.js) and everything worked well.

HTML tags don't appear in DOM when included using ng-include

I'm trying to include a file using ng-include.
the side-bar appear in the UI but when I say view page source that time the HTML tags of the side-bar doesn't appear.

That is because when you view the source of an HTML page in any browser, it will perform a fresh GET of the original document and display that source code. Since AngularJS injects elements to the DOM dynamically (and because it is "just" JavaScript all together), the original generated by the server-side will not be modified. To see the generated source, use a developer tool of your choice, i.e F12 Developer Tools in IE. Also, you may want to read up on the role JavaScript plays in the whole lifecycle of webpage rendering.

Programmatically remove <script src="/unwanted.js".. /> reference

I have partial control of a web page where by I can enter snippets of code at various places, but I cannot remove any preexisting code.
There is a script reference midway through the page
<script src="/unwanted.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
but I do not want the script to load. I cannot access the unwanted.js file. Is there anyway I can use javascript executing above this refernce to cause the unwanted.js file not to load?
Edit: To answer the comments asking what and why:
I'm setting up a Stack Exchange site and the WMD* js file loads halfway down the page. SE will allow you to insert HTML in various parts of the page - so you can have your custom header and footer etc. I want to override the standard WMD code with my own version of it.
I can get around the problem by just loading javascript after the original WMD script loads and replacing the functions with my own - but it would be nice not to have such a large chunk of JS load needlessly.
*WMD = the mark down editor used here at SO, and on the SE sites.

In short, you can't. Even if there is a hack, it would heavily depend on the way browsers parse the HTML and load the scripts and hence wouldn't be compatible with all browsers.

Please tell us exactly what you can and cannot do, and (preferably; this sounds fascinating) why.
If you can, try inserting <!-- before the script include and --> afterwards to comment it out.
Alternatively, look through the script file and see if there's any way that you could break it or nullify its effects. (this would depend entirely on the script itself; if you want more specific advice, please post more details, or preferably, the script itself.

Could you start an HTML comment above it and end below it in another block?
What does the contents of unwanted.js look like?

You can remove a script from the DOM after it is called by using something simple such as:
s = document.getElementById ("my_script");
s.parentNode.removeChild(s);
This will stop all functions of the script but will not take it out of user's cache. However like you wanted it can't be used.

Basically you can't unless you have access to the page content before you render it.
If you can manipulate the HTML before you send it off to the browser, you can write a regular expression that will match the desired piece of code, and remove it.
