Hey everyone, I'm currently working with Selenium WebDriver to extract values from a drop-down list. However, I am facing an issue as my code seems unable to recognize the xpath I provided.
Here is the code snippet I am dealing with:
WebElement selector = driver.findElement(By.xpath("id('search')/x:fieldset/x:table[1]/x:tbody/x:tr[2]/x:td[1]/x:select"));
Select s = new Select(selector);
List<WebElement> options = s.getOptions();
for (WebElement wb : options) {
System.out.println(wb.getText());
}
The trouble lies in the first line where I define the WebElement 'selector'. The output throws an error message similar to this:
Exception in thread "main" org.openqa.selenium.InvalidSelectorException: The xpath expression 'id('search')/x:fieldset/x:table[1]/x:tbody/x:tr[2]/x:td[1]/x:select' cannot be evaluated
I also attempted to locate the element by name or class, but unfortunately, Selenium still fails to identify the list.
If anyone has suggestions on how to resolve this problem, I would greatly appreciate your input. Thank you in advance :)
