Drop down menu item selection

[jcknick]

Hey guys,

got stuck on something that worked for me before but not this time Usually if I want to select a drop down menu item, I emulate Keystrokes so that the menu item i want is gradually selected in the drop down menu. Today I ran into an issue when e.g. while I emulate typing in "Lajbansson", the script at first picks it up correctly, then switches to "Sony"

How do I emulate "exactly" what I have in my variable?

Get the match # and select it that way. Here's an example for how to do it with checkboxes, hopefully you can figure out how to do it for dropdowns.

Yeah, I used that as well for checkboxes. But how do I "click" a dropdown option with specific parameter? The raise, click doesn't seem to work on dropdowns.

It should if you serach through innertext

And to avoid getting multiple matches you could add ^ and $ to the front/end of the regex, telling you're looking for an exact match (make sure to escape special characters).

Will instead return:

Good advice!
