Question

Please suggest way to click on - Facebook sign up page- CREATE NEW ACCOUNT BUTTON- using selenium java ( Right click is not permitted) I tried using this code-- https://www.facebook.com/--

WebElement element=driver.findElement(By.id("u_0_2_1a"));       
JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;     
js.executeScript("arguments[0].click();", element);

Error: org.openqa.selenium.NoSuchElementException:

no such element: Unable to locate element: {"method":"css selector","selector":"#u_0_2_1a"}

Answer 1

You are using the ID attribute which can change. Hence its throwing no such element. Please use the xpath as below:

//form//a[@role='button'][contains(.,'Create New Account')]

I just tested it. it works. Below should be your code.

WebElement element=driver.findElement(By.xpath("//form//a[@role='button'][contains(.,'Create New Account')]"));
