I am currently using Selenium Webdriver version 2.41 along with Chrome version 68. My goal is to select an item from a dropdown list:
<div id="loc_placeholder" class="jLocPlaceholder" style="">All locations</div>
<select id="location_facet" name="location_facet" class="search_input font_bold multiselect jLocInput chzn-done" data-placeholder="All locations" multiple="" style="display: none;">
<option value="233">United Kingdom</option>
<option value="250">Netherlands</option>
<option value="228">United States</option>However, despite my efforts and numerous attempts with various options, I have not been successful in making the code below work. The driver simply cannot select any option :/
WebElement location = driver.findElement(By.id("loc_placeholder"));
location.click();
Select dropdown = new Select(driver.findElement(By.id("location_facet")));
dropdown.selectByValue("250");
//dropdown.selectByIndex(1);
//dropdown.selectByVisibleText("Netherlands");
When I click on the dropdown, the list expands.
