Clicking a hidden menu button.

[SD]

Hi Guys,

I've got a menu button which will only 'revel' itself once you hover about the text ('Search'). 
Hovering above search will show 'General Search' that can be clicked to move to the relevant page. 

I'm already using declarations like  Manager.ActiveBrowser.Find.ByName<HtmlInputSubmit>("submit").Click(); 
and was wondering what is the appropriate element to use in my case. 

Ta,

SD. 

<div id="menuForm:searchMenu"  class="dr-menu-label rich-ddmenu-label dr-menu-label-unselect rich-ddmenu-label-unselect" >
<span id="menuForm:searchMenu_span"  class="dr-label-text-decor rich-label-text-decor" >Search</span>
<div style="border: 0px none ; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; z-index: 100;" >
<div id="menuForm:searchMenu_menu"  class="dr-menu-list-border rich-menu-list-border"  style="visibility: hidden; z-index: 2; left: -6px; top: 3px; width: 150px;" >
<div class="dr-menu-list-bg rich-menu-list-bg" >
<div id="menuForm:_id28"  class="dr-menu-item rich-menu-item dr-menu-item-enabled rich-menu-item-enabled"  onmouseup="Event.stop(event); "  onclick="; ;"  style="" >
<span id="menuForm:_id28:icon"  class="dr-menu-icon rich-menu-item-icon" >
<img height="16"  width="16"  src="/webInt/spring/a4j_3_1_6.GAimages/spacer.gif" />
</span>
<span id="menuForm:_id28:anchor"  class="rich-menu-item-label" >
<a id="menuForm:generalSearch"  onclick="clearFormHiddenParams_menuForm('menuForm');document.forms['menuForm']['menuForm:_idcl'].value='menuForm:generalSearch'; document.forms['menuForm'].submit(); return false;"  href="#" >
General Search
<script type="text/javascript" ></script>
</a>
</span>
</div>
<div class="dr-menu-list-strut rich-menu-list-strut" ></div>
</div>
</div>
<script id="menuForm:searchMenu_menu_script"  type="text/javascript" ></script>
</div>
</div>

Hello SD,

Based on your code, please try:

Manager.ActiveBrowser.Find.ByContent<HtmlSpan>("Search").MouseHover();

System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(5000);

Manager.ActiveBrowser.RefreshDomTree();

Manager.ActiveBrowser.Find.ByContent<HtmlAnchor>("General Search").Click();

All the best,
