[Home](./index.md) &gt; [puppeteer](./puppeteer.md) &gt; [Page](./puppeteer.page.md) &gt; [waitFor](./puppeteer.page.waitfor.md)
## Page.waitFor() method
> Warning: This API is now obsolete.
>
> Don't use this method directly. Instead use the more explicit methods available: [Page.waitForSelector()](./puppeteer.page.waitforselector.md), [Page.waitForXPath()](./puppeteer.page.waitforxpath.md), [Page.waitForFunction()](./puppeteer.page.waitforfunction.md) or [Page.waitForTimeout()](./puppeteer.page.waitfortimeout.md).

<b>Signature:</b>
```typescript
waitFor(selectorOrFunctionOrTimeout: string | number | Function, options?: {
visible?: boolean;
hidden?: boolean;
timeout?: number;
polling?: string | number;
}, ...args: SerializableOrJSHandle[]): Promise<JSHandle>;
```
## Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| selectorOrFunctionOrTimeout | string \| number \| Function | a selector, predicate or timeout to wait for. |
| options | { visible?: boolean; hidden?: boolean; timeout?: number; polling?: string \| number; } | optional waiting parameters. |
| args | [SerializableOrJSHandle](./puppeteer.serializableorjshandle.md)\[\] | arguments to pass to <code>pageFunction</code>. |
<b>Returns:</b>
Promise&lt;[JSHandle](./puppeteer.jshandle.md)&gt;
## Remarks
This method behaves differently depending on the first parameter. If it's a `string`, it will be treated as a `selector` or `xpath` (if the string starts with `//`). This method then is a shortcut for [Page.waitForSelector()](./puppeteer.page.waitforselector.md) or [Page.waitForXPath()](./puppeteer.page.waitforxpath.md).
If the first argument is a function this method is a shortcut for [Page.waitForFunction()](./puppeteer.page.waitforfunction.md).
If the first argument is a `number`, it's treated as a timeout in milliseconds and the method returns a promise which resolves after the timeout.
