Hi,

I ran in a case where I need to delete the text of an input before writing into it, and deleting the innerHTML would just mess with the rest of the scripts. So I've made a function for CTRL+A+Delete. I thought it is a common case and that people here could use this code.

from botasaurus_driver import cdp

def send_ctrl_a_delete(element):
  element._tab.send(cdp.input_.dispatch_key_event(
    type_="keyDown",
    modifiers=2,  # Ctrl = 2
    code="KeyA",
    key="a",
    windows_virtual_key_code=65 
  ))
  
  element._tab.send(cdp.input_.dispatch_key_event(
    type_="keyUp",
    modifiers=2,
    code="KeyA",
    key="a",
    windows_virtual_key_code=65
  ))
  
  element._tab.send(cdp.input_.dispatch_key_event(
    type_="keyDown",
    code="Delete",
    key="Delete",
    windows_virtual_key_code=46
  ))
  
  element._tab.send(cdp.input_.dispatch_key_event(
    type_="keyUp",
    code="Delete",
    key="Delete",
    windows_virtual_key_code=46
  ))
