I have the following code: 

el = browser.find_element(By.CSS_SELECTOR('div.iconTabSheet95_0.PPTSPicture'))

When I try to run it, I get the following error: 

File "C:\Users\belkina\source\repos\try_ros\try_ros\try.py", line 25, in <module>
    el = browser.find_element(By.CSS_SELECTOR('div.iconTabSheet95_0.PPTSPicture'))
TypeError: 'str' object is not callable

When I try to search for an element on a page using a selector, I find it:

Why isn’t my code working?

Answer 1, authority 100%

Change the line: 

el = browser.find_element(By.CSS_SELECTOR('div.iconTabSheet95_0.PPTSPicture'))

To: 

el = browser.find_element_by_css_selector('div.iconTabSheet95_0.PPTSPicture')
