Is there a selenium function to click on area element with a particular class

I am working on Selenium with Python. I am quite new to this and I am trying to click on an image which has the following HTML

structure:

HTML:

<div id="result">

   <img class="img-450" usemap="#476872907" src="#" border="0" title="Click on a repeated (mirrored) image bellow" alt="">

   <map name="476872907">

      <area class="cursor" onclick="javascript:Captcha107('6k9frpw1');" title="Click on a repeated (mirrored) image bellow" coords="1,4,63,88">

      <area class="cursor" onclick="javascript:Captcha107('ya3ltbiv');" title="Click on a repeated (mirrored) image bellow" coords="65,4,128,88">

      <area class="cursor" onclick="javascript:Captcha107('9rbukmey');" title="Click on a repeated (mirrored) image bellow" coords="129,4,191,88">

      <area class="cursor" onclick="javascript:Captcha107('5mlv909r');" title="Click on a repeated (mirrored) image bellow" coords="192,4,255,88">

      <area class="cursor" onclick="javascript:Captcha107('eu7idjnz');" title="Click on a repeated (mirrored) image bellow" coords="257,4,319,88">

      <area class="cursor" onclick="javascript:Captcha107('al9a6zih');" title="Click on a repeated (mirrored) image bellow" coords="321,4,384,88">

      <area class="cursor" onclick="javascript:Captcha107('nyvkjeoc');" title="Click on a repeated (mirrored) image bellow" coords="385,4,448,88">

   </map>

</div>

I have tried a couple of things, for example:

driver.find_element_by_xpath('//img/@class="img-450"').click()



driver.find_element_by_xpath('//area[@class="cursor"]').click()

but, I seem to always end up with errors, for example:

selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: unknown error: shape= is not supported

sselenium.common.exceptions.InvalidSelectorException: Message: invalid selector: Unable to locate an element with the xpath expression //img/@class="img-450" because of the following error: TypeError: Failed to execute 'evaluate' on 'Document': The result is not a node set, and therefore cannot be converted to the desired type.

I am wondering if I can somehow click on the image using the area element.

Any thoughts which can point me in the right direction would be great. Thanks.

Based on the HTML you've shared, You could try this code :

wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 10)

img= wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, 'div#result>img')))

img.click()

Make sure to import these :

from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By

from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
