    <p>I would like to use selenium to select a value in the <code>Month</code> list box for birthday on google page: <a href="https://accounts.google.com/SignUp" rel="nofollow">https://accounts.google.com/SignUp</a></p> <p>When I view page code, the code for the list box looks like:</p> <pre><code>&lt;select id="BirthMonth" name="BirthMonth"&gt; &lt;option value=""&gt;Month&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="01" &gt;January&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="02" &gt;February&lt;/option&gt; ...... &lt;option value="12" &gt;December&lt;/option&gt; &lt;/select&gt; </code></pre> <p>However, when I use Selenium <code>driver.findElements()</code>, I cannot find this <code>select</code> and its <code>option</code> elements. It looks like every list box on this page (as well as <code>gender</code> one) cannot be accessed. </p> <p>Can anyone give some suggestion how Selenium can access to these elements? Thanks</p> <p>The code is as follows:</p> <pre><code>driver.get("https://accounts.google.com/SignUp"); List&lt;WebElement&gt; inputElements = driver.findElements(By.xpath("//select[@name]")); for(WebElement input: inputElements){ if(input.getTagName().equals("select")){ Select selectinput = new Select(input); List&lt;WebElement&gt; selects = selectinput.getOptions(); } } </code></pre> <p>I did not get the <code>select</code> element I want. </p> <p>EDIT:</p> <p>I also try to use <code>Select select1 = new Select(driver.findElement(By.tagName("select")))</code> but still cannot find this <code>BirthMonth</code> list box. It is wired. There is only one listbox which is inside Javascritpt that can be accessed.</p>

    3. CO@Santoshsarma Can I locate the select element by using findElement(By.xpath), then change it to the Select? Like the way in the code? Thanks

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
