               Settings mySettings = new Settings();
            mySettings.Web.DefaultBrowser = BrowserType.FireFox;
            Manager myManager = new Manager(mySettings);
            myManager.Start();
            myManager.LaunchNewBrowser();
            myManager.ActiveBrowser.NavigateTo("http://www.gmail.com");
            System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(8000);
            HtmlFindExpression expression = new HtmlFindExpression("Name = Email", "id = Email");
            HtmlInputEmail emal = myManager.ActiveBrowser.Find.ByExpression<HtmlInputEmail>(expression);

Hello Sunil,

I am sorry to hear that  you are experiencing this issue.

I have made some small changes in your code and now it should work:

Settings mySettings = new Settings();
mySettings.Web.DefaultBrowser = BrowserType.FireFox;
Manager myManager = new Manager(mySettings);
myManager.Start();
myManager.LaunchNewBrowser();
myManager.ActiveBrowser.NavigateTo("http://www.gmail.com");
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(8000);
HtmlFindExpression expression = new HtmlFindExpression("id=Email", "tagname=input");
myManager.ActiveBrowser.RefreshDomTree();
HtmlInputEmail emal = myManager.ActiveBrowser.Find.ByExpression<HtmlInputEmail>(expression);

You should use "id=Email", "tagname=input" for find expression. 

I have recorded a short video for demonstration. 

Let me know if this works.

Thanks for the reply!
After the above code, I am trying to enter some value on the email box like below code, but unable to identify the email box even with tagname and id...

Settings mySettings = new Settings();
            mySettings.Web.DefaultBrowser = BrowserType.FireFox;
            Manager myManager = new Manager(mySettings);
            myManager.Start();
            //List<Browser> browsers = new List<Browser>;
            //browsers = myManager.Desktop.
            myManager.LaunchNewBrowser();
            myManager.ActiveBrowser.NavigateTo("http://www.gmail.com");
            System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(8000);

            HtmlFindExpression expression = new HtmlFindExpression("id=Email", "tagname=input");
            myManager.ActiveBrowser.RefreshDomTree();

            HtmlInputEmail emal = myManager.ActiveBrowser.Find.ByExpression<HtmlInputEmail>(expression);
            emal.Value = "sunilpatro1985";  //emal returns a null value and getting error as object reference not found on run

Please help regarding this, I am not sure if missing something as this is just my start to this framework, thanks

Hello Sunil,

In order to achieve this, you need to change  emal.Value = "sunilpatro1985";  with the following line of code:

myManager.ActiveBrowser.Actions.SetText(emal, "sunilpatro1985");

I've recorded a short video for demonstration.

I hope this helps.
