Click a button of embeded applet

[techw...@gmail.com]

By using selenium(chrome driver) I am automating a web page. But in one case the webpage has a code as shown below(java applet). this has a button "Sign"(it has got only one button). I want to click that button.

<object classid="clsid:8AD9C840-044E-11D1-B3E9-00805F499D93" codebase="http://java.sun.com/update/1.5.0/jinstall-1_5-windows-i586.cab#Version=5,0,0,5" width="130" height="25" name="Applet">
                    <param name="code" value="fjrff">
                    <param name="archive" value="">
                    <param name="mayscript" value="true">
                    <param name="type" value="application/x-java-applet;version=1.6.0-beta2">
                    <param name="scriptable" value="false">
                    <param name="fileNameField" value="up">
                    <param name="certificationChainField" value="ce">
                    <param name="signatureField" value="s">
                    <param name="tokenType" value="tokenType">
                    <param name="ButtonCaption" value="Sign">

                    <comment> <embed type="application/x-java-applet;version=1.5"  <noembed></noembed> </comment>

I tried using

driver.FindElement(By.CssSelector("object[classid='clsid:8AD9C840-044E-11D1-B3E9-00805F499D93']")).Click()

But it didn't work. Is there any way I can click this button?

Is there a way to click on a element by simulating the click using coordinates in selenium?

You cannot use WebDriver to interact with Java applets.

Ok. But is there any option to simulate click by specifying coordinates?

[Krishnan Mahadevan]

I don’t know if you can try clicking on a given co-ordinate especially when that co-ordinate lands up in an applet.

But you can try using this.

        Actions action = new Actions (driver);

        action.moveByOffset (x,y).click ();

Thanks & Regards
