python and selenium; failing to confirm if an xpath is present or not

[12345678]

basically in the website there might and might not be a box, so I wanted to make it check if that box does exist, and then if it exists run another piece of code.

 

to do that I got the xpath, since it looks like it has not an id or other sort of identification, but it doesn't work

That snippet is not even syntactically correct. And FindElement will throw if the element does not exist.

what's wrong with the syntax?

what can I use opposed to findelement?

 

I thinked to do two of those strings one if true run X string, and another one that if false, run Y string

 

nevermind I think that I've solved with try and else

thanks though

 

I thinked that I fixed, but I did not
